Other People

I took your favorite shade of red and drew a line
Jumped across and hurt us both to see the view
Broken into two so something new could take a look at what's inside

There were other people there
And we didn't seem to care
While you lay awake in someone else's bed
I can't help but overhear all of the things you said
How you were growing up too fast
And I was staying young too late

Intentional mistakes
Seven years to gather all of
What we made
Where happiness become the mess that we let grow

What we are I can't explain to anyone
Infected with lust
Infatuated with our love
Silver lining in all our faults
Rolling through my head like somersaults

There were other people there
Never seemed to care
Say nothing if you can't say something
To save us

Those three words have only built a wall
From where we fall
So save all your breath
Say nothing, say nothing at all

No, you're not someone I hate
But damaged love's all we create
So if you're sleepless wondering why or asking how
We're just other people now
