Lyrics
I saw you turn into someone else
I witnessed a transformation in you, turning into a different person
And leave us both behind
You abandoned both of us
You put me on your shelf
You placed me aside as if on a shelf
But I won't stay this time
I won't endure this situation again
So I'll keep it to myself
I will keep my feelings to myself
'Till it festers in my mind
These emotions will fester in my mind
And I'll gently wish you well
I will quietly wish you well
As the color leaves your eyes
Observing a change as the vibrancy fades from your eyes
I'm runnin' outta ways to say
I'm running out of ways to express
That I wish it would all just stay the same
I desire things to remain unchanged
Yeah I never really was one for the change
I was never inclined towards embracing change
But it always seemed to happen anyway
Change always seemed inevitable despite my resistance
I saw you turn into someone else
Reiteration of the observed transformation in you
And leave us both behind
You left both of us behind
You put me on your shelf
Placed on a shelf like an object
But I won't stay this time
Declaring a refusal to endure the same situation again
So I'll keep it to myself
Keeping inner thoughts concealed
'Till it festers in my mind
Allowing emotions to intensify internally
And I'll gently wish you well
Expressing a quiet wish for your well-being
As the color leaves your eyes
Noting the departure of vitality from your eyes
(As the color leaves your eyes)
Repetition emphasizing the fading of color from the eyes
(As the color leaves your eyes)
-(As the color leaves your eyes)
-(As the color leaves your eyes)
-(As the color leaves your eyes)
-(As the color leaves your eyes)
-(As the color leaves your eyes)
-(As the color leaves your eyes)
-You wear your old expressions
Noting the use of familiar facial expressions, but perceiving beyond them
But I see right through it, I see right through it
Seeing through any pretense or disguise
I'm sick of all the questions
Expressing frustration with persistent questioning
Baby I won't do this, I won't do it again
Declaring a refusal to go through a similar experience again
I saw you turn into someone else
Repetition of earlier sentiments regarding the observed transformation and the departure of vibrancy
And leave us both behind
-You put me on your shelf
-But I won't stay this time
-So I'll keep it to myself
-'Till it festers in my mind
-And I'll gently wish you well
-As the color leaves your eyes
-(As the color leaves your eyes)
Repetition emphasizing the fading of color from the eyes
(As the color leaves your eyes)
-(As the color leaves your eyes)
-(As the color leaves your eyes)
-(As the color leaves your eyes)
-(As the color leaves your eyes)
-(As the color leaves your eyes)
-(As the color leaves your eyes)
