Between The Lines

[Verse 1] You don't say much when you look at me But your silence always speaks too loud There's a tension underneath your calm Like a secret hiding in the crowd I can feel you pulling back again Like you're scared of what you might reveal Funny how the things we never say Are the only things that ever feel real [Pre-Chorus] Don't give me another pretty lie I can read it in your eyes You don't have to run tonight Just let me see what's on your mind [Chorus] I know what's hiding between the lines Every little pause, every change in your eyes You can keep your words, I know the signs There's something burning underneath your disguise If you wanna leave, then leave it clean Don't keep me somewhere in between I don't need forever, I just need what's true So tell me what you're trying not to do [Verse 2] Your perfume's still caught in my room And your voice still lingers on my phone Funny how a little piece of you Can make a crowded place feel cold I've been learning not to chase a ghost Not to turn a maybe into fate If you want me, you know where I am If you don't, I won't make you stay [Pre-Chorus] Don't give me another pretty lie I can read it in your eyes You don't have to run tonight Just let me see what's on your mind [Chorus] I know what's hiding between the lines Every little pause, every change in your eyes You can keep your words, I know the signs There's something burning underneath your disguise If you wanna leave, then leave it clean Don't keep me somewhere in between I don't need forever, I just need what's true So tell me what you're trying not to do [Bridge] Maybe we're too close Maybe we're too proud Maybe we're just scared Of saying it out loud I won't pull you closer I won't push you away But if you're gonna touch my heart Don't disappear the next day [Breakdown] Say it slow Say it straight No more guessing No more games If it's real Let it breathe If it's not Let me leave [Final Chorus] I know what's hiding between the lines Every little pause, every change in your eyes You can keep your words, I know the signs There's something burning underneath your disguise If you wanna leave, then leave it clean Don't keep me somewhere in between I don't need forever, I just need what's true So tell me what you're trying not to do [Outro] Don't say forever Don't say goodbye Just tell me the truth And look me in the eyes
