The Different Colors

Among the different colors,

what do we know is real?

The world is painted in different ways

There are different layers we have to peel

Is the world as bad as it's painted to be?

Or are the colors supposed to help?

We are told life its hard

You won't get what you want,

No one will help you,

You won't make a difference,

And then you die

It's a depressing painting of the world,

It can't really be that bad

It's all about perspective

Maybe if you saw the world differently, you'd be glad

What if the different paintings were meant to help?

What if the different colors were meant to help?

The different colors can brighten your day,

The different colors can offer encouragement

You don't want to follow the footsteps of someone else

Take your view of the world and shift it slightly

Then maybe life won't hurt so badly

The world is about what you see

Among the different colors,

You can change your reality
