[Verse 1]
Pages on the floor
Torn from that story we were drawing in
You slammed the door
Left me there
Hands shaking with the pens
Red
Blue
Running off the paper like they knew
That every little line
Was gonna bleed
Was gonna blur
Like you
[Pre-Chorus]
We had sunsets in the margins
Laughing in fluorescent light
Now I’m pacing through the silence
Asking how you sleep at night
[Chorus]
You broke my colors
Left my rainbow black and white
I gave you all my shades
You just crossed the final line
Angry
Sad
Betrayed
Every hue just drains away
You broke my colors
But I’ll burn brighter anyway
[Verse 2]
I see us on the carpet
Markers open
Staining up your jeans
You swore you’d never drop it
That forever wasn’t just sixteen
Now those little neon hearts
Faded in the corner of the page
Look like warning signs
That I never thought to read that way
[Pre-Chorus]
You stabbed holes in every promise
Then you called it “doing right”
How am I the one who’s guilty
When I’m the one who tried
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[low vocal register]
You took our canvas
Tore it in half
Blamed the tear on me
But I’ve got anger in my chest now
Kicks like thunder
Sets me free
[crescendo]
I’ll paint my name across the dark
Let the lights explode in time
Every drop you tried to steal
Becomes a storm that’s only mine
[Chorus]
