Rose Colored Songtext
von Foreign Fields

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?
And now it's time to decide
Would I rather be blind?

I don′t wanna defy my own
I don't wanna rely on perfect home
I just wanna survive
I just wanna 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 wanna want to defy my own
I don't wanna rely on perfect home
I just wanna survive
I just wannna 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 (self, self)
