between the lines
Mom tried to see the best in things
She liked to think positively
Until she thought she met the one for her
Dad fought very much
He took a swing at every punch
Until one day he landed it on her face
I guess this ain't the way stories go
But this one had to fight for her home
And now I read between the lines
Of what is wrong and what is right
Of what to do and how to fight for my life
I swear I wont be like the ones
Who swear that I take after them
But I had learned a deeper lesson within
Of how to treat the ones I love right
And now I read in between the lines
I swear I do it almost every night
Just listen to the words I write
I promise that I'll never be just like them
I remember nights listening to her cry
It used to keep me up every time
Just wishing I could do something
Just to make her smile
And now I wish that I had stood a chance
Then being that little boy living his relapse
And now I read between the lines
Of what is wrong and what is right
Of what to do and how to fight for my life
I swear I wont be like the ones
Who swear that I take after them
But I had learned a deeper lesson within
Of how to treat the ones I love right
And now I read in between the lines
Every time
Dad never thought me things
He just left it all to me
And I figured out how the world works
He drank faster than he said
Sorry boy, I swear I love you more
And I wish I never heard what he said
To mom that very reckful night
And I know I saw the tears in her eyes
And now I read between the lines
Of what is wrong and what is right
Of what to do and how to fight for my life
I swear I wont be like the ones
Who swear that I take after them
But I had learned a deeper lesson within
Of how to treat the ones I love right
And now I read in between the lines
Now I read in between the lines
Every time
She liked to think positively
Until she thought she met the one for her
Dad fought very much
He took a swing at every punch
Until one day he landed it on her face
I guess this ain't the way stories go
But this one had to fight for her home
And now I read between the lines
Of what is wrong and what is right
Of what to do and how to fight for my life
I swear I wont be like the ones
Who swear that I take after them
But I had learned a deeper lesson within
Of how to treat the ones I love right
And now I read in between the lines
I swear I do it almost every night
Just listen to the words I write

Of how to treat the ones I love right
And now I read in between the lines
Now I read in between the lines
Every time
