Time to tell me
the truth
To burden your mouth
for what you say
No pieces of paper
in the way
Cause I can't continue
pretending to choose
These opposite sides
on which we fall
The loving you
laters if at all
No right minds
could wrong be
this many times
My memory is cruel
I'm queen of
attention to details
Defending intentions
if he fails
Until now
he told me her name
It sounded familiar
in a way
I could have sworn
I'd heard him say
it ten thousand times
If only
I had been listening
Leave unsaid unspoken
Eyes wide shut unopened
You and me
Always
between the lines
Between the lines
I thought I thought
I was ready to bleed
That we'd move
from the shadows
on the wall
And stand in
the center of it all
Too late two choices
to stay or to leave
Mine was so easy
to uncover
He'd already left
with the other
So I've learned to
listen through silence
Leave unsaid unspoken
Eyes wide shut unopened
You and me always be
You and me always be
I tell myself
all the words
he surely meant to say
I'll talk
until the conversation
doesn't stay on
Wait for me
I'm almost ready
When he meant let go
Leave unsaid unspoken
Eyes wide shut unopened
You and me
Always be
You and me
Always
between the lines
