Between the Lines Lyrics

Between the lines

The stories get told

The poets they speak

Their truth is so bold

The mysteries unravel

While the poets they weep

But the people that hear them

Seem to still sleep

Between the lines

The message is woven

Between the lines

The picture is painted

As the artist sighs

The stories are painted

And the truth is revealed

But to the masses that view them

The truth is concealed

Between the lines

Deaf hands they paint

To blind eyes that can't see

Visions of grandeur

To ears that can't hear

They die in obscurity

And they live so alone

And the world views them

As lives gone wrong

Between the lines

Life goes on

Between the lines

The truth's laid down

Between the lines

Between the lines

Behind the roar

Can you see the tears

Between the lines

In the lives we live

Fear and depression

Masked with arrogance and pride

Between the lines

That call our lives

Between the lines

Between the lines

Some things they aren't clear

Between the lines

Some things they aren't real

Between the lines

Some people they hide

And between the lines

Some people fight for their lives

Between the lines

Between the lines

Of left and right

Between the lines

Of black and white

Between the lines

The grey it swirls

Between the lines

Lives spin and twirl

Between the lines

And life goes on

Between the lines

The truth's laid down

Between the lines

Between the lines

The masks we wear

And the faces we make

Between the lines

Of the lives we fake

Trying to dress

So no one can see

The hurt

The pain

The insecurity

Between the lines

Can you hear the questions

Can you read my mind

Can you tell me again

As my thoughts unwind

What I've left behind

In the paths I've walked

The shoes I've walked in

And the language I've talked

Between the lines

The people I've touched

And the ones who've touched me

In between the lines

Tell me what do you read

The roads I've traveled

And the turns I've made

The footprints I've left

On my way to the grave

Between the lines

Life goes on

Between the lines

The truth's laid down

Between the lines

Between the lines

Well He spoke in parables

The truth to conceal

To eyes that can't see

And to ears that can't hear

Confounding the wise

To the simple He spoke

Lay down your burdens

And pick up my yoke

Between the lines

He said

Come unto me

Were the words that He spoke

But to the wise

They seemed like a joke

Yet to the simple

The truth He proclaimed

And they believed in Him

And worshipped His Name
