See it as it is
Sometimes you want so bad
For everything to be right
You tell yourself things are good
It's okay just hold on another day
Everything will be like it should
But the blood has flowed
The wound's already open
No soft wish in the cool cool dawn
Can take back the words that we've spoken.
(chorus)
Haven't I tried a thousand times
To paint things in different colors
Close my eyes to the others
I see it as it is.
Don't I know the seed was sown
Just wouldn't admit the worst and
Now that the bubble is burst
I see it as it is.
We walked together in the starlit dark
Like I could have walked forever
But something in you left a little mark
And I should have known you'd never never
You'd never be able
To bring our love inside
So we went on pretending
I wouldn't see what you couldn't hide.
[chorus]
