Plastic Shades
I have watched you die
I have seen disguise
Your soul's reflection in my eyes
I was blinded by tinted glasses
I wish that you would try
I don't need someone like you to dictate all my points of view
I'm done
And I know that I've won
So I'll love myself in the way you couldn't
Never paid for dates, you know you should've
You liked my friends but they didn't love you or your style
I'm so glad that when I don't see you in your plastic shades
I'm blessed to not have wasted another day
I failed myself for staying with you for too long
I'm just so glad that we're done
Time has magnified
Your flaws and pride
You're not the boy I liked
Maybe I was just a child
So I played along and faked a smile
And I tried to convince myself that it was you or no one else
I don't need someone like you to dictate all my points of view
I'm done
And I know that I've won
So I'll love myself in the way you couldn't
Never paid for dates, you know you should've
You liked my friends but they didn't love you or your style
I'm so glad that when I don't see you in your plastic shades
I'm blessed to not have wasted another day
I failed myself for staying with you for too long
I'm just so glad that we're done
You'd wait for my moment to bring up past pain
You'd like to point at me with all of the blame
I'd take it and grow up but you stayed the same
I'm glad that this is over with
You'd wait for my moment to bring up past pain
You'd like to point at me with all of the blame
I'd take it and grow up but you stayed the same
I'm glad that this is over with
So I'll love myself in the way you couldn't
Never paid for dates, you know you should've
You liked my friends but they didn't love you or your style
I'm so glad that when I don't see you in your plastic shades
I'm blessed to not have wasted another day
I failed myself for staying with you for too long
I'm so glad that we're done
I have seen disguise
Your soul's reflection in my eyes
I was blinded by tinted glasses
I wish that you would try
I don't need someone like you to dictate all my points of view
I'm done
And I know that I've won
So I'll love myself in the way you couldn't
Never paid for dates, you know you should've
You liked my friends but they didn't love you or your style
I'm so glad that when I don't see you in your plastic shades
I'm blessed to not have wasted another day
I failed myself for staying with you for too long
I'm just so glad that we're done
Time has magnified
Your flaws and pride
You're not the boy I liked
Maybe I was just a child
So I played along and faked a smile
And I tried to convince myself that it was you or no one else
I don't need someone like you to dictate all my points of view
I'm done
And I know that I've won
So I'll love myself in the way you couldn't
Never paid for dates, you know you should've
You liked my friends but they didn't love you or your style
I'm so glad that when I don't see you in your plastic shades
I'm blessed to not have wasted another day
I failed myself for staying with you for too long
I'm just so glad that we're done
You'd wait for my moment to bring up past pain
You'd like to point at me with all of the blame
I'd take it and grow up but you stayed the same
I'm glad that this is over with
You'd wait for my moment to bring up past pain
You'd like to point at me with all of the blame
I'd take it and grow up but you stayed the same
I'm glad that this is over with
So I'll love myself in the way you couldn't
Never paid for dates, you know you should've
You liked my friends but they didn't love you or your style
I'm so glad that when I don't see you in your plastic shades
I'm blessed to not have wasted another day
I failed myself for staying with you for too long
I'm so glad that we're done
