[About The Song]

[Verse 1]
Bright lights cause shadows
Not everyone knows
But they'll learn it some time in their life
You always stood out
In every night's crowd
A spot of red on a white backdrop
That's what you are

[Pre-Chorus]
You'll crash and burn
When it's your turn
When will you ever learn?
As the commotion died down
I looked around
And you were nowhere to be found

[Chorus]
I was never the only reason
I was never even one
Darling, you're mesmerizing, but burn like the sun
You'll never make me forgive you
I gave you my whole world
But then you disappeared and were gone in a whirl

[Verse 2]
Bright lights cause shadows
I had never known
Until you pulled me in from the side
You were in my heart
From the very start
But now you left it here to die
That's what you do

[Pre-Chorus]
You'll spark and flame
Be just a name
It all ends in ways the same
Maybe one day you'll realize it
I fell to the dust and you let me sit and rust

[Chorus]
I was never the only reason
I was never even one
Darling, you're mesmerizing, but burn like the sun
You'll never make me forgive you
I gave you my whole world
But then you disappeared and were gone in a whirl

[Bridge]
Why
Are you a completely different person?
The conditions have certainly worsened
And I can tell by the way you look at me tonight
Is it wrong
That I still miss all the flashbacks
And the stories you used to tell me
After promising you'd always hold me tight?

[Chorus]
I was never the only reason
I was never even one
Darling, you're mesmerizing, but burn like the sun
You'll never make me forgive you
I gave you my whole world
But then you disappeared and were gone in a whirl

[Outro]
In a whirl
I blinked my eyes and you were gone
Leaving me to wonder
What did I do wrong?
