Read in between the lines

I'm fine, no honestly I'm fine

Read in between the lines

Nah just a bit tired

Stop asking when you don't really want to know, you'll only listen for a bit, sympathise, and then return never thinking about it again. And the only ones who wouldn't don't notice.

Why doesn't anybody read between the lines?

Are you alright? Come here, tell me…

I was reading in between the lines, watching the expressions on your face

I'm pushing my own thoughts, feelings, aside, keep a blank slate for this new issue. Why does everybody always come to me? What's so special about me? Why can't I go to someone? Why do I always clam up inside myself?

Yes I admit it, I know I do it. I watch myself and cannot change. I scream silent screams, inside my heart my head my soul. Yet it all builds up- and they know it, they just push it away- and then I snap, and they console, but forget and never think of it again. They don't have the ability to read in between the lines.
