read between the lines
used to be so cool
thought i had 'em fooled
thought i knew the rules
borderline conceit
vaguely feigned concern
many bridges burned, but i learned
finally got it right beteween the eyes, if only i had

read between the lines
read between the lines

voices talking low
people who should know
acting like they do
thinly veiled fear, believing what they hear
oooh, but they're just fools, getting fooled
headed for a very big surprises, but you can't keep dreaming

read between the lines (don't get fooled)
read between the lines (don't get fooled)
and you're holding on to a dream that can never be

seeing what you wanna see
hearing what you wanna hear
you're just afraid to face the truth
never be the easy way
never be the hardest way
it's just the only thing you can do

read between the lines (don't get fooled)
read between the lines (don't get fooled)

(break)

read between the lines (don't get fooled)
read between the lines (don't get fooled)
read between the lines (don't get fooled)
read between the lines (don't get fooled)
etc.
