If I Was Right

I saw it coming from a mile ago A flash of lightning on a winding road Wait 'til I'm paralyzed, then pull me close And tell me something I don't wanna know Soft as a whisper and sharp as a knife The brightest emotion made both of us blind I carved out a picture of you in my mind The pain washed away but the scars survive You betrayed the trust You're ashamed of us If I was right I can close my eyes You thought I hit you with a cannonball And that heart of stone must've been hard to fall But when the hurricane had conquered all I heard you crying through a crumbled wall Soft as a whisper and sharp as a knife The brightest emotion made both of us blind I carved out a picture of you in my mind The pain washed away but the scars survive You betrayed the trust You're ashamed of us If I was right I can close my eyes You betrayed the trust (soft as a whisper and sharp as a knife) You're ashamed of us (the brightest emotion made both of us blind) If I was right (I carved out a picture of you in my mind) I can close my eyes (the pain washed away but the scars survive)
