Red Eyes

You said it wasn’t what it looked like But your voice was shaking in the low light Every word you gave me felt like borrowed time And I should’ve known you were already crossing lines I trusted the way you held me close Didn’t see the cracks underneath your pose Now every promise echoes like a warning sign Guess I was the last to know you weren’t mine You painted love in colors you could wash away Left me standing in the mess you made And now I see the truth I didn’t want to face— The guilt shining in your gaze Red eyes Crying out the last of all your alibis Don’t you dare pretend you never told me lies I’m done being the one who pays the price Go on, look me in the— Red eyes Burning like the bridges you set alight You showed your truth when you couldn’t even try I won’t break for you again tonight All I see are red eyes You said I was your only weakness But you were busy feeding someone else your secrets You held my heart like something you could rearrange Did you ever love me, or was that just a phase? You played sweet like nothing’s wrong But you were singing someone else’s song Now every memory feels like a ghost in the room Whispering that I deserved the truth You painted love in colors you could wash away Left me standing in the mess you made And now I see the truth I didn’t want to face— The guilt shining in your gaze Red eyes Crying out the last of all your alibis Don’t you dare pretend you never told me lies I’m done being the one who pays the price Go on, look me in the— Red eyes Burning like the bridges you set alight You showed your truth when you couldn’t even try I won’t break for you again tonight All I see are red eyes No more apologies rehearsed No more pretending I’m not hurt You didn’t lose me— You let me go first And now I’m stronger than you ever knew I’m walking out, leaving the smoke with you Your world can crumble, but I’ll make it through ’Cause I see you… Red eyes Crying out the last of all your alibis Don’t you dare pretend you never told me lies I’m done being the one who pays the price Go on, look me in the— Red eyes Burning like the bridges you set alight You showed your truth when you couldn’t even try I won’t break for you again tonight All I see are red eyes Save your tears… They won’t change mine
