The Color Of Real

So I step off like a wounded child before you

I never knew what it took to be real

Until I looked in your eyes, Shattering myths about the lie

Then I crawl inside

Show me the light and take away how it feels when they crucify me

And I say

I know I’ll make it through but it’s hard to be real

But you show through suffering your true colors

You’re always standing tall and though I try to be

I’m feeling weak because I stray from the tree

But what’s it doing here

Then I fall back into line

Where they hurt me

I do my time over again but you can’t

Where do you find the power

And I say

I know I’ll make it through but it’s hard to be real

But you show through suffering your true colors anyway

Take me alive oh they take me alive

And they suck it out

And I say

I know it’s hard to be real

But your show your true colors anyway
