I've been thinking now
Going back to a time since gone
I think i accidentlly found
What we kept stum-blin on
I thought we thought alike
The truth was so much darker
Like the scorch from lightning strikes

I guess I was black
And I guess you were red
I let you go first
Never thought it'd go to your head
We're two different pages of two different books
I thought we were romance
But love was mistook

I wish I'd gone insane
Wish instead I'd lost my mind
The truths too hard to swallow
And we cant go back in time
I feel a little lost
I take it back, I feel a lot
I never knew just what you'd cost

Black and white, they say we attract
But opposite love doesn't work like that
The ink on the pages bled

I guess I was black
And I guess you were red
I let you go first
Never thought it'd go to your head
We're two different pages of two different books
I thought we were romance
But love was mistook

I guess I was black
I guess you were red
Never thought blood
Would be shed
