🎧 “Between the Lines” (Fireboy DML Style)
[Intro – airy, melodic]
Oh no no…
Oh yeah yeah…
Mm… Bronhilda…
⸻
[Verse 1]
You dey talk to me soft, like midnight
Tell me all of your dreams, your insight
I dey feel like say maybe I’m inside
But you never really give me green light
You dey move like a ghost in the daylight
One step close, then you fade out my eyesight
I dey read all the space in your silence
Try to turn every maybe to a right time
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me why you go show me love small, hide the rest?
Why you open door but you never let me in?
I dey reason you deep, I confess
But your actions no dey match anything…
⸻
[Chorus – catchy, Fireboy bounce]
I was reading between the lines (lines)
Thinking maybe one day you go be mine (mine)
But potential no dey hold me tight (tight)
And confusion no dey treat me right
I give meaning to every sign (sign)
While you steady dey undefined (fined)
Now I see am clear for my eyes…
You no ever really be mine
⸻
[Verse 2]
You dey tell me your plans, your future
Make me feel like say I’m included
But you never say where I stand
So I’m loving you blind, diluted
Maybe you get somebody for corner
Maybe me I just play my own part
But I no fit compete for a love
Where I no dey chosen from start
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
I’m done with the guessing, oh
No more overthinking, oh
If na love, e go show for real…
⸻
[Chorus – fuller, emotional]
I was reading between the lines (lines)
Thinking maybe one day you go be mine (mine)
But potential no dey hold me tight (tight)
And confusion no dey treat me right
I give meaning to every sign (sign)
While you steady dey undefined (fined)
Now I see am clear for my eyes…
You no ever really be mine
⸻
[Bridge – soft, reflective Fireboy tone]
I no go chase wetin no choose me
I no go force wetin no fit be
If e be love, e go come complete
Now I dey guard my peace slowly
No more losing myself only
Real love no suppose feel this deep… (this deep…)
⸻
[Outro – fading, emotional]
Oh no no…
I choose me this time…
No more reading signs…
