Read Between The Lines

Forget about all her flaws
Don’t tell her something she already knows
And just pay attention
Because underneath it all
She’s going to let her life go

It’s like a cry for help
Everything she does or says
Everything she’s writing to you
Today

Can you read between the lines?
Find something that’s not really there?
Even if it’s invisible
No matter how rare
Can you read between the lines?
Do you notice the fake smiles
Standing out above the laughter
Maybe she’s broken
Now, don’t ever doubt her

Remember those late nights
When you called her perfect
The only time she ever felt that
She wasn’t a reject
Congrats on walking away
Pride is a deadly sin
Just leave her to
Fall down onto barely anything
Take back what you’ve given her
And in the end
Turned her into a nonbeliever

It’s like a cry for help
Everything she does or says
Everything she’s writing to you
Today

Can you read between the lines?
Find something that’s not really there?
Even if it’s invisible
No matter how rare
Can you read between the lines?
Do you notice the fake smiles
Standing out above the laughter
Maybe she’s broken
Maybe you can save her
