Default HTML text and stuff

Normally when I make a page and have a line and then another right below it there is a large space between the two lines of text, how can I remove this. I want it to be more like what is below

this line
then this line

with no large space of nothing between the lines

check the html code to be sure that there is no <p> in your code.

I tried removing the <p> from the text example

<p>Music</p>
<p>film</p>

to

<p>music
film</p>

And that just made it all on one line, what should I be using instead of the <p>?

also just tried without <p> </p> at all and I also get one line of text
