colorblinded.

I planned on heaven with you and I only found hell
I had it all figured out, thought I knew you so well
I had nothing but patience but time could only tell
what I wish I'd known
I would have saved me from myself

but you and your golden words painted a picture that I couldn't look away from
you and your silver lining held me in your storm
I ended up black and blue and bleeding red from every airbrushed line...
I know now
that I had been colorblinded

I laid my cards out, refused to play the game
You showed me your hand and promised to do the same
I saw the wounded beast that I had thought I'd tamed
I was so naive
I didn't see it when it came

but you and your golden words painted a picture that I couldn't look away from
you and your silver lining held me in your storm
I ended up black and blue and bleeding red from every airbrushed line...
I know now
that I had been colorblinded

now I'm stuck in monochromatic limbo
craving the color that you drained
wishing I could wash you away

but you and your golden words painted a picture that I couldn't look away from
you and your silver lining held me in your storm
I ended up black and blue and bleeding red from every airbrushed line...
I know now
that I had been colorblinded

you and your silver lining held me in your storm
but I finally see the rainbow
