Colors Don't Lie (Version 2)

Verse

Coffee cup ring on the passenger seat

Radio static where your voice used to be

Streetlights blur into one long line

Riding home alone but I'm still mine

Pre-Chorus

So why do colors catch me here tonight

Every stoplight turning amber gold like light

Is this a funeral or an invitation to thrive

Tell me which road just ends and I survive

Chorus

Colors don't lie, they tell the truth I know

Even in the dark the sky turns gold when it goes

I'm not losing myself, I'm letting go

Painting a sunset where the gray used to be

Colors don't lie, so here I stand alive

Verse 2

Dust on my dashboard from some long-forgotten town

Receipts for laughter that folded into a crown

That one song on repeat we blasted all day long

Now it's just a memory, but it still feels like home

Pre-Chorus

So why do colors catch me here tonight

Every stoplight turning amber gold like light

Is this a funeral or an invitation to thrive

Tell me which road just ends and I survive

Chorus

Colors don't lie, they tell the truth I know

Even in the dark the sky turns gold when it goes

I'm not losing myself, I'm letting go

Painting a sunset where the gray used to be

Colors don't lie, so here I stand alive

Bridge

Maybe every ending's just a color waiting

To change before my eyes into something better hiding

Goodbye looks orange right now, but look closer still

It's just a chapter turning, not a door left shut

I'll hold onto the ache and let it teach me gold

That this kind of breaking is the only way to unfold

Chorus

Colors don't lie, they tell the truth I know

Even in the dark the sky turns gold when it goes

I'm not losing myself, I'm letting go

Painting a sunset where the gray used to be

Colors don't lie, so here I stand alive
