Between Us Lyrics

You want me to trust
Is that why there's blood on the floor
Is this meant for us
Drawing my name in the dust
Closing the door left open

Smile like you own the rain
Then tell it to flood
The people of pain
Until we're all the same

Then give me some clutch
Squeeze the last drop of your touch
You're tired and sold
Shiver from cold drops of love
So why do I trust
I could care less about you and your

I need you don't alone
This means you won't alone

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Well, first off I would love to show my profound respect for bands like Index Case and all the other bands from Des Moines, Iowa that have worked so hard for so long, and show mad respect for the world and they all deserve the best. Except for this little known band called Slipknot, who are egocentric assholes that don’t show any respect from there roots other than that if they were from any other city no one would ever know.

On that note go see the documentary, “A Clown Short of Destiny. It shows how hard bands have tried to get a name for themselves, and when one does they ignore and dismiss that they ever came from a hell hole like Des Moines, which makes me sick.

As for the meaning of the song I find it quite simple but it could used in many contexts then just the shallow meaning, which is an ex lover who hurts them in the end. Also, the lyrics could apply to many situations to this day and age. By the way this is truly my favorite Index Case song.

If any of you saw the trailer and wondering what song that was in there it was this one.

Rock on. Keep up your love for music.
