Kyle Cruse - Between the Lines (cover of Sara Bareilles song)

My cover of Sara Bareilles' song Between the Lines from her album Little Voice. Wasn't a big hit for her but has been a song I have appreciated very much. Lyrics below:

Time to tell me the truth
To burden your mouth for what you say
No pieces of paper in the way
Cause I can't continue pretending to choose
These opposite sides on which we fall
The loving you later's if at all
No right minds could wrong be this many times

My memory is cruel
I'm king of attention to details
Defending intentions if she fails
Until now, she told me his name
It sounded familiar in a way
I could have sworn I'd heard her say it ten thousand times
If only I had been listening

Leave unsaid unspoken
Eyes wide shut unopened
You and me
Always between the lines
Between the lines

I thought I thought I was ready to bleed
That we'd move from the shadows on the wall
And stand in the center of it all
Too late two choices to stay or to leave
Mine was so easy to uncover
She'd already left with the other
So I've learned to listen through silence

I tell myself all the words she surely meant to say
I'll talk until the conversation doesn't stay on
Wait for me I'm almost ready
When she meant let go
