Rose-Colored Glasses

I thought I saw you in the crowd
but it was just another stranger's face
I haven't heard from you in months
and to start now simply seems too late

All that you were
is now a blur
frozen behind glass
locked up in the past
Or did you set free
what waited in the deep
And everyone tells me
that i should deal

With rose-colored glasses turned into red flags
Nights together at the bar
now i closed all the tabs
Knee-deep into you
left me picking at the scabs
people change and you can't change
From sippin' red wine to bad bad blood
But dancing in the rain turned into wrestling in the mud
I would have been your life-boat,you had to be the flood
people change and you can't change
that

I have text in my notes app
and I almost send it about a hundred times
But you had to be the one
who brought a gun to a knife-fight

I could forget
whatever you said
But i cant forgive you
for what you didn't do
And what your ego couldn't
and what I shouldn't
I tried to bite your bullet
and chocked on it

Cause rose-colored glasses
turned into red flags
Nights together at the bar
now i closed all the tabs
Knee-deep into you
left me picking at the scabs
people change and you can't change
From sippin' red wine to bad bad blood
But dancing in the rain
turned into wrestling in the mud
I would have been your life-boat
you had to be the flood
people change and you can't change that

All of the songs
that we sang in your car
when you just got your license
all sound like a blues
All of the partys
and crying on shoulders
yeah every memory
reminds me of you
And there's nothing i can do

Cause rose-colored glasses
turned into red flags
Nights together at the bar
now i closed all the tabs
Knee-deep into you
left me picking at the scabs
people change and you can't change
From sippin' red wine to bad bad blood
But dancing in the rain
turned into wrestling in the mud
I would have been your life-boat
you had to be the flood
people change and you can't change

From a friend to a stranger
I know everything about
Already hit rock-bottom
so now i'll stand my ground
Every piece of me
wishes you would come around
But People change and you cant change
From wishing break a leg
to breaking my neck
And laying in your arms
left a knife in my back
Late night drives
now hit the road jack
People change
and you can't change that
