close the blinds

Rose-colored glasses weren't enough So I closed my eyes If I tried to look out the window You'd close the blinds If I saw the sunlight I'd find that I am miserable inside So you remind me You're all I have Every time we fight You won't plant your flower You keep her in a vase I liked the thought of being protected But I'm in a cage And there's nothing to romanticize About all of my wasted time Not for lack of trying I've always wanted to be held But your grip is iron Enjoyed the warmth 'Til I realized that it was fire Rose-colored glasses weren't enough So I closed my eyes If I tried to look out the window You'd close the blinds
