Foreign Fields - Rose Colored

Now you look at me lost here on my street
Another beautiful mind is changing
You violently wake me from my dreams
Another beautiful body shakened
Are the doors that I opened closing in
All the words that I spoke now frozen
Now that I'm taller am I too thin
Now it's time to decide
Would I rather be blind
I don't want to want to defy my own
I don't want to rely on perfect home
I just want to survive
I just want to survive with rose colored eyes
It's in the trees of the forest waiting
It's in the smell of wood we're burning
It's in the touch of the pine
The change in my eyes
I don't want to want to defy my own
I don't want to rely on perfect home
I just want to survive
I just want to survive with rose colored eyes
It's the shape of her back as she weeps over his body
As we sing our little songs in the hospital room
The sound of your voice as I search your words for meaning
Is there beauty in the breathing
Even when that breathing's left
In the tree that we had planted now grows strong inside my chest
I will walk for all these miles just to
Find what I have left within myself
Self
