Verse 1)I was busy building castles, looking at the starsWhile you were in the driveway, leaning on our carI’d come home and find the pillows tossed across the floorYou’d be fixing up your shirt and heading for the doorI thought we were brothers, a bond you couldn't breakI was blinded by the kindness that you used to fake.(Pre-Chorus)The scent of your cologne was lingering in the hallI saw her smudge of lipstick on the kitchen wallI heard the whispers dying down when I walked in the roomBut I was far too deep in trust to see the coming doom.(Chorus)I was so blind, I didn't even notice the fireDancing in the wreckage of every truth you called a liarYou were banging, you were making out, right behind my backWhile I was colorblind, failing to see the white and blackAll the evidence was screaming, staring in my faceBut I was lost in a ghost of a love I can’t replace.(Verse 2)I found your silver lighter tucked inside the sheetsShe had a thousand excuses, practiced and sweetYou’d laugh at all my jokes and pour another glassWaiting for the second that you’d see me passI gave you the keys, I gave you my homeNow I’m standing in the silence, gutted and alone.(Pre-Chorus)The scent of your cologne was lingering in the hallI saw her smudge of lipstick on the kitchen wallI heard the whispers dying down when I walked in the roomBut I was far too deep in trust to see the coming doom.(Chorus)I was so blind, I didn't even notice the fireDancing in the wreckage of every truth you called a liarYou were banging, you were making out, right behind my backWhile I was colorblind, failing to see the white and blackAll the evidence was screaming, staring in my faceBut I was lost in a ghost of a love I can’t replace.(Bridge)How does it feel to step over the line?To take what was holy and make it a crime?I was the fool who kept the porch light onWhile you were stealing the dawn.(Guitar Solo / Instrumental Break)(Chorus)I was so blind, I didn't even notice the fireDancing in the wreckage of every truth you called a liarYou were banging, you were making out, right behind my backWhile I was colorblind, failing to see the white and blackAll the evidence was screaming, staring in my faceBut I was lost in a ghost of a love I can’t replace.(Outro)Right in my face.Yeah, it was all right there.I just didn't want to see.Now I'm wide awake.(Fade out)
