Between Your Lines (Album Version)

Between Your Lines - Holly Williams

We are all a little crazy

We are all a little weak

And we all are very fragile

When there's nothing left to speak

When there's no one left to talk to

No more tears are left to cry

Will you stand up for the right thing

Or continue in denial

I don't know

Well you know I'd love to help you

You know I'd love to heal

But without the hands of God

You will never be revealed

So take off your mask of happiness

Take off your mask of fame

We all know that you've got problems

Just like everybody's name

I don't know why you fold

In the arms of reality

Why do you break with every wave

In your stormy sea

You know I'd love to think

You were doing fine but I'd be lying

So don't tell me everything is good

Don't walk on bitter ground

I have seen you at your worst

And I still love you when you're down

But I hate to see you live like this

I hate to see you crying

And I hate to see you tangled

In her web of sex and lies

Do you have a god you pray to

Do you have a god you love

Do you have some twisted fear

About the will from up above

Do you wait for him in silence

Do you wait for him in vain

Do you think some crazy fool

Is gonna preach away your pain

I don't know why you fold

In the arms of reality

Why do you break with every wave

In your stormy sea

Why do you cringe at the wake

Of every godly dream

While I watch you laughing

On the brink of insecurity

You know I'd love to say

You were doing fine but I'd be lying

So why must you walk with burdens much

Too big for you to bear

When you know it's not your fault

There are saints and sinners everywhere

You don't have to smile

I can read between your lines

I read guilt and I read mercy

I read glory to the father

I read bitterness and suffering

And love for all your children

Brokenness inside

Your heart and scars too deep to see

I read pain from a younger

Who's father left too early

Who's mother tried to mold him into

What she'd love to be

I don't know why you fold

In the arms of reality

Why do you break with every wave

In your stormy sea

And why do you cringe at the wake of

Every godly dream while

I watch you laughin on the brink of insecurity

You know we'd love to help

Yeah you know we'd love to heal

But without the hands of God

You will never be revealed

You know we'd all love to say

You were doing fine but we'd be
