True Colors Lyrics

It was Friday night, I was home

Thinking how I could survive

Collecting my hopes on the floor

One missing piece I couldn't find

A message popped up on my phone

Someone I didn't recognize

It was you handing me what I was looking for

Saying it was mine

But when I told you who I was

Doubted me and turned your back

Bent the truth and showed your true colors

Tried to make me look so bad

Not easy, right? Is it?

To fight with me, right? is it?

Not easy, right? Is it?

To fight for me

Not easy, not easy

You knew what I was going through

You knew exactly where it hurt

But you leveled it up times two

When you gave me up

Looking back, I see all the times you crossed the line

I forgave you, believing you'd do the same for mine

But right at the moment I was weak

You took your chance to leave

No time for me and said you were with the love you pursued

But asked me to build a castle for us like it was my due

I wasn't all alone but you made me feel like I was

Then told me I was not enough while you'd been gone in thin dust

Not easy, right? Is it?

To fight with me, right? is it?

Not easy, right? Is it?

To fight for me

Not easy, not easy

I was with you when you cried at your lows

While the friends you're proud of slipped away like ghosts

Never checked in on me when I wasn't strong

You watch them misconceive me and sing off-tune songs

You only text me when I benefit you (benefit you)

Yet still, here I am to celebrate what you do (I am with you)

I guess that is the difference between me and you (me and you)

One's real, one isn't, and conniving too

And conniving too

Andconnivingtoo
