Rose Coloured

I was in the fog
I couldn't see
I was too small to tip toe past the trees
Too big to realize what was under my feet
Too me

Ah
The red flags waved so early
But I saw them to be pink
I had rose colored glasses
Funny how people can change in different lighting
They're hiding behind the spectrum of their tints
I'm the fool for thinking you're just like me
A mirage just to spite me

Like me, like you
Like who, like who
Like me, like you
Like who, like who
Like me, like you
Like who, like who
Like me, like you
Like who, like who
You, you, you, you, ooh
You, you, you, you, ooh
Ah

Isn't it obvious my optometrist hates me
Checked light adaptive
But what does that mean
When you were my sun but it's dark now
Darwin should take me out
My heart can't lift for the big crowds
Muscle memory dismisses all the dissonance

I always said I wouldn't let a man treat me like this
Disrespect me like this
I thought I had the strength to be above it
I don't want to be me anymore
Who justifies takes for the sake of potential
'Cuz everyone's got issues
But it's not my job to fix you

Like me, like you
Like who, like who
Like me, like you
Like who, like who
Like me, like you
Like who, like who
Like me, like you
Like who, like who

I'm eating well now
Going to the gym now
Making some new friends
Find my fragments in the wind

I got another dude in the shower now
He flew out just to see me
He calls me pretty every night
It's the bare minimum but so new
You never did reach the bar, though
You were just too small
And here, I thought I needed to size up
Be a woman for you
Like it's something I needed to prove
There's not much I can do
Someone is always ready to fill your shoes
You never broke them in
Even though three years ago, they were gifted from me
The box, you can keep
Just something else that I don't need
The box, you can keep
Just something else that I don't need

You, you, you, you, ooh, you, you, you, you, ooh
You, you, you, you, ooh, you, you, you, you, ooh
