You paint me a blue sky
And go back and turn it to rain
And I lived in your chess game
But you changed the rules every day
Wondering which version of you
I might get on the phone tonight
Well I stopped pickin’ up
And this song is to let you know why
I see it all now that you’re gone
Don’t you think I was too young
To be messed with
The girl in the dress
Cried the whole way home
I should have known
Well maybe it’s me
And my blind optimism to blame
Maybe its you and your sick need
To give love then take it away
And I look back in regret
How I ignored when they said
“Run as fast as you can.”
I see it all now it was wrong
Don’t you think I was too young
To be played by your dark twisted games
I should have known
You are an expert at sorry
And keeping lines blurry
And never impressed by me
Acing your tests
But I took your matches
Before fire could catch me
So don’t look now
I’m shining like fireworks
Over your sad empty town
I see it all now it was wrong
Don’t you think I was too young
To be played by your dark twisted games
I should have known
