Everything seems amazing when your looking through rose-colored glasses.
Take 'em off, take 'em off,
Tell them to take em off
So they can see who you really are.
And they said we should get back together but I don't think it's even worth it
Because they don't know the stuff you do.
They never cried the tears I cried all night
Hoping I make it out alive
But I'm 90% close to death.
When I married you, I thought it was
To love, to hold, to cherish,
To death do us part.
I'm falling apart and can't seem to put the pieces back together,
Everything seems amazing when your looking through rose-colored glasses.
They must think you're Prince Charming
Since that's all they seem to see.
Behind closed doors they don't see everything.
They don't know why there's more makeup on my legs and arms then my face,
They don't know why I wear shades all day,
They don't know why the caged bird doesn't fly at night
Hoping to spread her wings.
But all they do is come back to her, almost shattering,
Everything seems amazing when your looking through rose-colored glasses
Take 'em off, take 'em off,
They don't know you like I do.
They don't know you torture me like hot coals burning my inside out,
They don't know you let ya fist meet my face
On the corner of broken and bloody.
You told them I cover my face up with make up 'cause I'm beautiful,
You never tell them the actual reason why cause you don't want to look bad.
Well, you look bad;
You failed to realize that you can't cover up love that's not there anymore,
And I only stay cause I can't get out.
I don't love anymore,
I only said "I Do" because I'm scared.
If I can turn back time
"Do you take this man to be your husband
To love, To hold, to cherish,
'Til death do us part"
"I DO" not;
I Do Not want to love you anymore,
I Do Not want to hold us together,
I Do Not want to cherish something that is broken,
'Til death do us part
And all everyone knows is that rose-colored glasses make everything look better.
