True Colors Male Perspective/True Colors Female Perspective
“Baby, show me you're a keeper
It's been hard for me to keep up
You've been tryna keep me in the dark
But baby girl, I see you
Girl, come show me your true colors
Paint me a picture with your true colors
These are the questions of a new lover
True colors, true colors”~The Weeknd
Girl come show me your true colors
I wanna understand
I wanna know your darkest secrets
Let me in
Let me in
Let me see all of you
The bad and the good
You make me question who I am to you
You avoid my questions at the cost of your heart
I’ve never shown you wrong
Let me know what I am to protect
I can accept you
Let me trust you
Know that you won’t lie to me
I don’t care what they say
I have a past
And so do you
Why is it so hard to open up to me?
Where do I start to begin to understand someone who doesn’t want to be understood ?
Can I trust you if you don’t trust me?
Who are you really?
What did you go through with your lovers?
How did your past affect you?
Where do I stand in your life?
Do you see me the same way you saw them?
If I love you, let me adjust to you, it’d be just for you
Let me in
I see you
“So if I love you
It'd be just for you
So when I'm touching you
Can I trust in you
Can I trust in you, oh baby”~ The Weeknd
My true colors aren’t so blissfully bright
There are demons I fight inside
I wake up not being able to breathe from my nightmares
You wouldn’t understand the dark thoughts that creep across my mind
You want to understand something I couldn’t even begin to process
You want to know me
But
I don’t even know me
All of me is not who I wish to be
I pray you never see that side of me
The bad is a lot worse than you could’ve imagined
Are you ready to deal with a girl who suffers depression?
Two types of Anxiety?
Eating disorder?
Possibly Biploarism?
All the anger in my body
The pain in my heart
The disappointment I face
I can’t answer those questions without thinking of how you could up and leave afterwards
Can you really accept me?
Protect me from myself?
You mean absolutely everything to me
I want to be good
Be good enough for you
I lie to myself everyday I could easily lie to you
But I won’t
My past is something that continues to haunt me even when I take several steps forward
My warped mind drags me back into those dark waters
I’m not my past but I’m defined by many because of it
It’s hard for me to open up after so many times
And I’d gotten so bad
I was left
I wasn’t helped
I was tossed to the side because they realized it wasn’t just a day
It’d be days,weeks,months
My highs are so high that when I fall
I fall hard
I want to be understood at the cost I’ll be unconditionally loved
I trust you but not enough for you to leave me
There might not be a forever but I want forever till whenever
In my life you stand right in front of me
I see similarities in all those that I have loved
They all tried but failed to love all of me even the worst of me
If you adjust to me will you become like me?
Do you really see me?......
Would you really love me?
