Between the Lines

I shut my eyes, trying not to speak
Pretend that I’m dreaming
I smell your breath, not listening
But I still hear you screaming
(Going under)
One step away till you hear what I’m saying
(Sounds like thunder)
And the clouds are closing in
You see I know this
But the last days in real life I’ve noticed
Losing focus
Breaking up from our life as we know it
If someone had told me
That I will take off
And find something greener
Greener than gold
If someone had told me
That I will be strong
I’m gonna rise, gonna rise, and fly
And leave the gold between the lines
I turn my head and hold it high
But he’s making me shiver
He’s not like you, don’t want him to
He’s more like the river
(Growing stronger)
When we’re alone there’s no you in the picture
(Paint by numbers)
Isn’t how I want it to
You see I know this
But the last days in real life I’ve noticed
Losing focus
Breaking up from our life as we know it
If someone had told me
That I will take off
And find something greener
Greener than gold
If someone had told me
That I will be strong
I’m gonna rise, gonna rise, and fly
And leave the gold, between, the lines
Whatever you do, what we were, now he’s my silver lining
Whenever you call, what you say, you’re nothing but a gold ring
To be true, say I do, but you’re no one I needed in life
Oh that is why, you are stuck between the lines
If someone had told me
That I will take off
And find something greener
Greener than gold
If someone had told me
That I will be strong
I’m gonna rise, gonna rise, and fly
And leave the gold, between, the lines
