Between The Lines

It’s not a silly little moment,
It means much more
It’s not the storm before the calm.
We always had calm
This is the deep and dying breath of
I can’t let go
This love that we’ve been working on.
We’ve worked so long
Can’t seem to hold you like I want to
It’s all I dream of
So I can feel you in my arms.
Where you belong
Nobody’s gonna come and save you,
If only I ever could
We pulled too many false alarms.
This one was real
I was the one you always dreamed of,
You always told me so
You were the one I tried to draw.
I never could
How dare you say it’s nothing to me?
It meant every single thing
Baby, you’re the only light I ever saw.
So dark without you
You’ll make the most of all the sadness,
You always were able to
I’ll be a bitch because I can.
That’s just how I am
You try to hit me just to hurt me
Won’t make the pain go away
So you leave me feeling dirty
It’s how I want to stay
Because you can’t understand.
I’m so sorry baby
My dear, we’re slow dancing in a burning room.
