I wore my rose-coloured glasses
In those chemistry classes
With you
Oooh, oooh
Oooh, oooh
Just like all the pretty pictures 
That I drew
There was a rosy hue
When I looked at you
Oooh, oooh

You played me
Like a game 
Of truth or dare
The other girls 
All knew
The things you do
They said
Yeah, they said
You don't play fair

Buyer beware
No, no
I didn't care
I couldn't see
I thought I knew
You wouldn't do
That awful stuff 
To me
I thought I knew
I was enough
Enough for you

I'm not the first 
I'm not the last
To see you in this rosy haze
Rose-coloured glasses 
Shoulda figured you out faster
Eyes wide open
But I couldn't see
All the big
And all the little things 
You did to me 
You did to me 

Every night
And every day
You chipped a piece of me away
Then suddenly
There's no escape 
The girl I used to be
Was gone

(I was gone)
(I was gone)
(I was gone)

Buyer beware
No, no
I didn't care
I couldn't see
I thought I knew
You wouldn't do
That awful stuff 
To me
I thought I knew
I was enough
Enough for you

I'm not the first 
I'm not the last
To see you in this rosy haze
Rose-coloured glasses 
Shoulda figured you out faster
Eyes wide open
But I couldn't see
All the big
And all the little things 
You did to me
Oh, ohhh

Like a puzzle
That's all scattered
Pieces missing
All that mattered
I told you so's
Are getting louder
Oh, I lost myself
I couldn't breathe
I don't know how
But you stole me
You stole me
From me (eee, eee)

I'm not the first 
I'm not the last
To see you in this rosy haze
Rose-coloured glasses 
Shoulda figured you out faster
Eyes wide open
But I couldn't see
All the big
And all the little things 
You did to me 
You did to me
