Rose Colored
[Verse 1]
Now you look at me lost here on my street
Another beautiful mind is changing
Violently wake me from my dreams
Another beautiful body shaking
[Verse 2]
Are the doors that I opened closing in?
All the words that I spoke now frozen
And now that I'm taller, am I too thin?
And now it's time to decide, would I rather be blind?
[Chorus]
I don't wanna divide my own
I don't wanna rely on a perfect home
I just wanna survive, I just wanna survive
With rose-colored eyes
[Verse 3]
It's in the trees of the forest waiting
It's in the smell of the wood we're burning
It's in the touch of the pine, the change in my eyes
[Chorus]
I don't wanna divide my own
I don't wanna rely on a perfect home
I just wanna survive, I just wanna survive
With rose-colored eyes
[Verse 4]
The shape of her back as she weeps over his body
As we sing our little songs in the hospital room
The sound of your voice as I search your words for meaning
Is there beauty in the breathing, even when that breathing's left?
And the tree that we had planted now grows strong inside my chest
I will walk for all these miles just to find what I have left within myself (myself, myself, myself, myself)
