The Inbetweens

There’s a glitch in the matrix
A system breakdown
You keep me there 
Wanderin around 
Blinded by the shadows
Runnin through the pain

Dancin in the waves
Drownin in the breeze
In through the out door 
Out through the in
Baby we’ve gone crazy
All over again

When the skies darkest
Who will be there 
when you’ve lost your dreams
Who will be there 
when you come apart at the seams

Dancin in the waves 
Drownin in the breeze
In through the out door
Out through the in
Baby we’ve gone crazy all over again

The streets are all empty
The crowds have gone away
Left you abandoned 
No need to say
Pick me up hold me down
There’s no guarantees 
There’s no inbetweens 
There’s no inbetweens 

There are no inbetweens

Dancing in the waves/Drowning in the breeze... these lines really got to me in my space of wonder! Nicely penned, Kim. But, I kinda like the moments in-between even though, like you said, there's no guarantee, there's no inbetweens... Smiles
