[Verse 1]
Couldn't hold you for long
Guess the distance looked better than me
I could only try so
Hard to get close to you
[Verse 2]
Now you're out with someone
Who is far more holy than me
Does she make you feel pure?
Safe and secure and new?
[Pre-Chorus]
I was chasing
The thrill of changing your mind
Hung up, wasting
[Chorus]
I thought you saw me like a Rothko
But you didn't even see me at all
Now I know was only ever confusing to you
I thought you saw me like a Rothko
But you didn't even see me at all
Now I know was only ever confusing
Confusing to you
[Verse 3]
I remember the days when I thought
We'd go the same way
Yeah, but when you're nineteen
It's all so easy to lose
[Pre-Chorus]
I was chasing
The thrill of changing your mind
Hung up, wasting
[Chorus]
I thought you saw me like a Rothko
But you didn't even see me at all
Now I know was only ever confusing to you
I thought you saw me like a Rothko
But you didn't even see me at all
Now I know I was only ever confusing
Confusing to you
[Bridge]
I always thought that you saw me like a Rothko
I always thought that you saw me like a Rothko
(Ooh)
[Chorus]
I thought you saw me like a Rothko
But you didn't even see me at all
Now I know I was only ever confusing to you
I thought you saw me like a Rothko
But you didn't even see me at all
Now I know I was only ever confusing
Confusing to you
