Between the Lines Lyrics by Filthy Thieving Bastards

A Melody of Retreads and Broken Quills

2001

You've got to read between the lines of mediocrity
Accept the [?]
Tie off the final knot with a kiss from your sweet design
Sink the ship when the times have flown and there's no more sense in giving
[?] some magical, with an air of bitter glee
And huddle in your darkest corner and wait right there for me
I've been beaten and I've worked and starved and emotionally misled
Just to be beside this one I want to share this shining bed
Today I've got a heavy head and a wind that stings so easily
So I brought the [?] right back to them, I'll admit I take to chiding
This wonder floats above all the scaffolds and petty preaching
She gives me love and I return it happily
