True Colours

Tell me again about before

How you got my picture on the wall

So, here's a fact that you ignore

Not who you think, down to the core

'Cause I know I'm on the floor

My mood is swinging harder than a stage during an encore

Why you keep saying I'm looking okay

Like if it meant I gotta be alright either way?

Why won't you let me show my true colours?

True colours

Oh-oh-oh

Why do you still believe I don't cover?

I don't cover

Oh-oh-oh

'Cause I'd be painting everything black and blue

I think I'm pleasing way too hard

I should've snapped right from the start

What should I do to show the dark

Depressing weight that's on my heart?

'Cause some days I'm falling apart

Yet, other days you see me thrive a lot on my art

Trust me, I know you feel like this isn't real

But it's too much for me to bring it up and reveal

Why won't you let me show my true colours?

True colours

Oh-oh-oh

Why do you still believe I don't cover?

I don't cover

Oh-oh-oh

'Cause I'd be painting everything black and blue

If you knew what was going on inside of me

Would you fight for me or would you cry for me?

If anything, I wish you wouldn't lie for me

Are you too blind to see?

Blind to see

Why won't you let me show my true colours?

True colours

Oh-oh-oh

Why do you still believe I don't cover?

I don't cover

Oh-oh-oh

'Cause I'd be painting everything black and blue
