Within The Lines

You see through me

So easily

But you can’t catch yourself

In the middle of your empty sighs

You cry at night,

Fake your way through life,

Pretending that you feel okay

 

Chorus:

There’s only so much to imagine,

When beauty equals pain

The mirror becomes fixed

But you tell yourself you’re sane

There’s nothing more than fantasy

Within the lines of your reason

There’s nothing more you want to see

Within the lines of your feelings

 

 

Nothings real until it’s gone

But you can’t let yourself regret

Anything you’ve never said

You walk too fast, or the world’s too slow,

For a smile that only knows where it wants to go,

And never changes speeds or leaves its home

 

Chorus:

There’s only so much to imagine,

When beauty equals pain

The mirror becomes fixed

But you tell yourself you’re sane

There’s nothing more than fantasy

Within the lines of your reason

There’s nothing more you want to see

Within the lines of your feelings
