lyrics

You kicked me down
I got back up now
The scars I wear are fading
You came around just to mess up
Now, I see right through your game
Your pretentious love brigade

You always came in the night
I didn't realize you had your armor on
You had you armor on
I had none
But when you came with the light, you were just in time
I had no one
Like a world with no sun
You were the only one

You had nothing to lose and something to prove
Shook me till' I was navy blue
Soon as I shined, you unveiled your disguise
Now i'm here left in navy blue.

Was it your intent to be the last man standing?
Now I see why you took me high.
You just flew me up to practice a crash landing
I fell right on my face
Your infectious love charade

But you came in the night
I didn't realize you had your armor on
You had you armor on
I had none
But when you came in my life, you were just in time
I had no one
And my heart was open
You were the only one

You had nothing to lose and something to prove
Shook me till' I was navy blue
Soon as I shined, you unveiled your disguise
Now i'm here left in navy blue.

You kicked me down
I got back up now
The scars I wear are fading
