(Verse 1)
You came in and out of my life like the speed of light
A flash of heat that left me blinded by the sight
I let you in, but you made me feel so cheap
Left my spirit broken and my body feeling weak
Then you look me in the eye, acting so profound
Tell me, why’d you have to go and fool around?
(Pre-Chorus)
You told me "forever," that’s the word you used to stay
Then you turned your back and just walked away
Now you’re standing on the porch, saying that you want me
While the ghost of what you did continues to haunt me.
(Chorus)
You came home with another woman on your arm
Like you didn't just set fire to the house and the farm
Then you looked at my face and asked me "What’s wrong?"
Like I’m the crazy one for not singing along
You said we’d be together, you said you’d stay
But you’re a thief in the night who just ran away.
(Verse 2)
And since the day we met, I believed the things you said
But now I’m picking up the pieces in this empty bed
How could you think it wouldn't bother me at all?
To see her shadow dancing on our bedroom wall
You’re crying for mercy, you’re saying you’re mine
But you crossed a line that’s a permanent sign.
Crying on the inside, stone-cold on the out
I finally know what "forever" was about
It was a placeholder, a word to keep me still
While you went looking for another kind of thrill.
You came home with another woman on your arm
Like you didn't just set fire to the house and the farm
Then you looked at my face and asked me "What’s wrong?"
Like I’m the crazy one for not singing along
You said we’d be together, you said you’d stay
But you’re a thief in the night who just ran away.
(Outro)
What’s wrong? You really gotta ask?
I’m finally seeing what’s behind the mask.
You’re the speed of light...
And I’m the one left in the dark.
