Colorblind

I remember like it's yesterday
We were talking on the phone
You were telling lots of stories that
You wished you didn't know and
Everyone around had seen and they already knew
But it took me a little bit longer before I realized I'd been bruised

I'm not being cynical
I wish it wasn't true that
People tend to hide behind
A mask you can't see through
And I guess I'm not so good at seeing
Who you are instead
I've been blind by pretty colors
When I should be seeing red

And it happened just the other day
We were laughing on the floor
And I couldn't help but think of what you
Told me just before
Yeah I figured you were kidding
But it kinda hurt a lot
And I didn't think to tell you
But I'm glad that I did not

Oh, and I'm not being cynical
I wish it wasn't true that
People tend to hide behind
A mask you cant see through
And I guess I'm not so good at seeing
Who you are instead
I've been blind by pretty colors
When I should be seeing red

Oh, and I'm not being cynical
I wish it wasn't true that
People tend to hide behind
A mask you cant see through
And I guess I'm not so good at seeing
Who you are instead
I've been blind by pretty colors
When I should be seeing red

I shoulda thought twice before I let my guard down
I shoulda thought twice before I let you through
Everyone around thought I was crazy
And I guess I shoulda listened cause it was true

I hope I learned my lesson not to wear my heart on my shirt
I never thought I'd leave here all alone and feeling so hurt
But I guess I'm not so good at seeing who you are instead
I've been blind by pretty colors when I should be seeing red

Oh, and I'm not being cynical
I wish it wasn't true that
People tend to hide behind
A mask you can't see through
And I guess I'm not so good at seeing
Who you are instead
I've been blind by pretty colors
When I should be seeing red

And I hope I learned my lesson not to wear my heart on my shirt
