Colorblind - Carie Vejvoda

Breathe it and breathe it out
Like it's all suddenly forgot
I stopped hanging onto
a single thread when
I realized that it was meant to end
I started to feel inside
that I was forcing it
If he loved me back then
why didn't I feel it
Scared of facing the world
on my own again
I chose to live a life
that was all pretend
I wanted it so bad
I gave it everything I had
I must be colorblind
didn't see the red flag right
in front of my eyes
I must be colorblind
to think the grass was greener
on the other side
Held on tight and it crumbled
I couldn't force my life
into the right mold
Tried to be the person
I thought I should be
instead of giving people a glimpse
of the real me
I wanted my life to
look picture perfect
afraid to take a risk
and really live it
I looked at everybody else with envy
instead of looking in the mirror
and seeing me
I must be colorblind
didn't see the red flag right
in front of my eyes
I must be colorblind
to think the grass was greener
on the other side
Disillusioned by the
the glitz and glamour
the lights the cameras distract
from what's really there
I must be colorblind
didn't see the red flag right
in front of my eyes
oo woah oh woah oh woah oh
Open my eyes and see
oo woah oh woah oh woah oh
my natural instinct
The feelin I'm gettin
inside when I know that
somethin just 'aint right
Didn't see the red flag right
before my eyes
I must be colorblind
to think the grass was greener
I must be colorblind
didn't see the red flag right
in front of my eyes
I must be colorblind
to think the grass was greener
on the other side
Disillusioned by the
the glitz and glamour
the lights the cameras distract
from what's really there
I must be colorblind
didn't see the red flag right
in front of my eyes
c-c-colorblind
I must be c-c-colorblind
