Sometimes in life we're tricked

By pretty things and beautiful sights

Blinded by lies,

Unable to see the truth

We're not forced to believe anything 

We just do

Because as humans,

We trust 

But now I see the true colors behind it all

And sometimes the true colors aren't always pretty

Sometimes those true colors turn out to be

Different shades of grey 

When really at first we saw bright blues

And happy yellows 

But those bright blues and happy yellows 

Faded out to reveal the hidden grey that 

Was underneath 

And grey doesn't bring joy,

It doesn't make you laugh

Bright blues and happy yellows make you laugh

And then you find yourself searching 

For those colors you once thought were true

Because you want to escape

This grey this... saddness

That your lost in 

Because you're tired

And confused

And you just want those fake colors 

To actually be real for once
