seeing right

I heard you found somebody new

And you think I'm missing you

But I've already seen that side

I know what's hiding behind your eyes

I've stood where he's standing now

Believed every promise somehow

Thought you were gold, thought you were true

Till I saw the real you

Yeah, I loved you once

I won't lie

But now I see

The reason why

I loved you once

But now I don't know why

(Don't know why)

I saw forever in your eyes

Now all I see are lies

(All your lies)

I held on way too long

Trying to keep us alive

I loved you once

But now I don't know why

(Ooh-oh-oh)

I was blind

(Ooh-oh-oh)

Blind the whole damn time

He's hearing all the words you say

The same old lines that made me stay

He's seeing all the things I saw

Before it all began to fall

Maybe he believes it's real

Maybe he believes the way I did

But every mask you wear will break

And every promise starts to fade

One day he'll see

What I couldn't find

The truth was there

The whole damn time

I loved you once

But now I don't know why

(Don't know why)

I saw forever in your eyes

Now all I see are lies

(All your lies)

I held on way too long

Trying to keep us alive

I loved you once

But now I don't know why

You took my trust

You took my light

Left me alone

To win that fight

Now the smoke is clearing

Now I'm seeing right

I loved you once

But now I know why

(Now I know why)

I fell in love with your disguise

Not the person behind

(Behind those eyes)

I held on way too long

Trying to keep us alive

I loved you once

But never again this time

(Ooh-oh-oh)

Never again this time
