Shades

Take off your coat and show me your frown
'cause I know you have a lot on your mind
It’s understandable
That you’re fed up with me
But let’s be honest
I’m driving you away
From this life you dreamt
That you’d always have
I made an excuse for you to get so far alone
Just to come home
Pointing a finger and shaking your head
Stop me at the door
To remind me what you’re doing this for
I’m leaving you so I can be more myself
Not this person that you dreamed up
I don’t want to live my life
Blaming you for the imperfections
And the baggage I have
I guess I’ll always live my life in a shadow
The sun must have no light for me
Why can’t we just open up the shades?
Why can’t we just rip open the shades?
Why can’t we just lift up all the shades?
Why can’t we just tear down all the shades, shades?
Is that too much to ask of you?
It’s my and only my curse to live with
It’s not asd bad as it seems
I guess I’m used to it
Don’t worry I’m better off alone alone
The sky is opening to me
I guess it’s perfect to be happy
Like a dream I’ve never had
Wait, I see a storm front coming, coming in
