Spectrum of Colors by Sam Collie Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Honing in on what makes us more
Than expectations of identity
I told you once, I'll tell you again
You don't have to expect anything of me

[Verse 2]
They'll say keep your eyes on your paper
And don't you peek, I'm always watching
Have you considered it might be best
If you focused your eyes with good intent
Cause I'm tired of trying to repent

[Chorus]
Cause you were blinded by the black and white
And you failed to find the spectrum of colors deep inside
With all of the wrong you missed the right
And you focus your eyеs on what's behind
Can't you just be happy for me?
Focus on your own insеcurities
[Verse 3]
Well if there's more to life than what is shown
Then why don't we just practice what you preach?
Cause if there's not more then what's life for
Without the beauty in between

[Verse 4]
Cynicism directs your heart
And condescension covers you from head to feet
It's easy to look past all those lies
And hide your fears between your teeth
And justify insensibility

[Chorus]
Cause you were blinded by the black and white
And you failed to find the spectrum of colors deep inside
With all of the wrong you missed the right
And you focus your eyes on what's behind
Can't you just be happy for me?
Focus on your own insecurities

[Outro]
Can't you just be happy for me?
Focus on your own insecurities
