The song is about meeting someone who made you fall in love with him. After some time you fall in love too. And you saw that that person never tells you the true but only what you want to hear. Finally you broke up (it’s weird writting it in second person)
[Verse 1]
I met hell walking on two legs
Blue eyes, big smile, and the brightest face
I fell in deep but my trust was misplaced
An open love, till he needed space
[Pre-Chorus]
I’m not here to wait around
Stand in line, stare at the ground
I need a solid answer from you
[Chorus]
Never was a game, neither one of us was ahead
Said what I wanted to hear, but not what you felt instead
I paid attention to everything you said
And when you saw black and white I saw infrared
Oh I saw infrared
I-Infrared
Infrarеd
I-Infrared
Infrared
I-Infrared
[Verse 2]
Had my doubts at first but thеn you grew on me
Ignored all others who clearly didn’t see
Who you were, I wanna learn that love isn’t cheap
It took the cost of heartbreak, I wish you weren’t so care-free
[Pre-Chorus]
I’m not here to wait around
Stand in line, stare at the ground
I need a solid answer from you
[Chorus]
Never was a game, neither one of us was ahead
Said what I wanted to hear, but not what you felt instead
I paid attention to everything you said
And when you saw black and white I saw infrared
Oh I saw infrared
I-Infrared
Infrared
I-Infrared
Infrared
I-Infrared
[Bridge]
I’m the first to admit that I made some mistakes, oh, I know it’s true
But underneath all of my walls I still cared for you
The time spent together outside of our minds was long overdue
But next thing I know I turn around and you say we’re through
[Pre-Chorus]
I’m not here to wait around
Stand in line, stare at the ground
I got me solid answer from you
[Chorus]
Never was a game, neither one of us was ahead
(I saw infrared)
Said what I wanted to hear, but not what you felt instead
(I saw, I saw)
I paid attention to everything you said
And when you saw black and white, I saw infrared
Oh I saw infrared
I-Infrared
Infrared
I-Infrared
Infrared
I-Infrared
