Between the lines

Lyrics

Woke up before the sun again Same thoughts knocking in my head Coffee cold on the counter now Didn’t even take a sip somehow There’s a voice that I can’t outrun Says I’m late, says I’m not enough I try to shake it, let it pass But it keeps coming back, yeah it comes back fast ⸻ Pre-Chorus And I laugh like it don’t get to me But it’s louder when there’s no one else to see ⸻ Chorus I’m holding on, but I’m worn thin Trying to quiet the noise within Say I’m fine, yeah I say it all the time But I’m breaking between the lines I keep moving, I don’t stop Even when it gets too much If you look close, you might find I’m just holding on between the lines ⸻ Verse 2 Yeah I joke about the little things Like I’ve got it all in reach Talk about balance, play it cool Like I’m not walking a tightrope too Every word that I let slip Plays on repeat in my head like this Could’ve said it better, should’ve stayed quiet Now I’m wide awake just trying to fight it ⸻ Pre-Chorus And I swear I’m getting stronger every day But some nights I still feel the same ⸻ Chorus I’m holding on, but I’m worn thin Trying to quiet the noise within Say I’m fine, yeah I say it all the time But I’m breaking between the lines I keep moving, I don’t stop Even when it gets too much If you look close, you might find I’m just holding on between the lines ⸻ Bridge (soft, almost spoken → build) Maybe I don’t need to win this fight tonight Maybe I just need to let it pass me by Maybe I’m not as far as I feel Maybe this weight… ain’t always real ⸻ Final Chorus (bigger, emotional push) I’m holding on, yeah I’m still here Even when it’s not so clear Say I’m fine… maybe someday I’ll mean it But I’m closer than I’ve ever been to believing I keep moving, I don’t stop Even when it gets too much If you look close, you might find… I’m still standing between the lines
