True Colours from Headway by blacktoothed

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 encore
why you keep saying I’m looking okay
Like if it meant I gotta be alright either way?

(So)

Why won’t you let me show my true colours?
Why do you still believe I don’t cover?
‘Cause I’d be painting everything black & blue

I think I’m pleasing way to hard
I should have 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?
Why do you still believe I don’t cover?
‘Cause I’d be painting everything black & 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?



Why won’t you let me show my true colours?
Why do you still believe I don’t cover?
‘Cause I’d be painting everything black & blue
