about

Between the Lines is from a dream/revenge fantasy I had with an ex partner and every retort I had always wanted to have. When I called them out on their crap they replied:
"Why did you have to read between the lines?".

Influences for Between the Lines include The Wannadies, Faker, Ali Barter, The All-American Rejects, Marina and the Diamonds, Tom Waits, The Strokes, Panic! at the Disco and Adam & The Ants.

lyrics

You go before me
Leave me behind
Hold the door for me then you hold me tight
I don't get how you play
Do you hear what you say?

Why did you have to read between
Why did you have to read between

Asleep beside you only tonight
Your sheets are dirty hardly worth the drive
For some half-baked pipe dream
I didn't even scream

Why did I have to read between
(did you have to read between)
Why did I have to read between

When you realise what you've lost
Your love is overdue, I'll be far away
And if you think of me at all
If you ever do
Will you be sorry?

(why did you have to read between)
Why did you have to read between
(why did I have to read between)
Why did I have to read between
(why did I have to read between)
Why did I have to read between
