I throw myself under people like a bus
Hope in the chaos to forget about us
Try to forgive what could never be
We were both so unhappy why can't I see through
Anything but
Rose colored glasses?
Why can't I see through
You?
Thought time away would get it out of my system
Then I sit down to play and my thoughts can't resist him
Finally sober now he visits me at night
At least that version gets it right
Through anything but
Rose colored glasses
Why can't I see through
You?
At least I can say I've tried
It's the scent of mint of pine
Of cherry cola Christmas
Of cheerwine deep fried
And it's like we never even missed us
I hear you say things mixed with things you didn't
"Be happy for me 'cause you know that you couldn't"
Couldn't
I guess there's no real reason that I shouldn't
Shouldn't
But now all I can see through is
Rose colored glasses
Why can't I see through
You?
At least I can say I tried
