Shade of Green Lyrics by Lizzie Esau

Perspectives

2022

[Verse 1]
It's kind of obsessive
Takes over your mind it's possessive
It's like follow them out of the room right down the stairs to the exit
Just to ask them about their day
In the hope they're in a negative space
So you can feel that little bit better
About who you are in yourself today
[Pre-Chorus]
Such a beautiful smile she has that you can't bare
Her innocence it clings to you like a poison in the air
You wish it didn't work like this the wires in your mind
You feel like there's a loose connection and you can't turn on the light
[Chorus]
Deceiving she never was the real thing
Believing it bleeds your soul out dry
You turn a deeper shade of green on your phone like every evening
Can you let me change your mind
[Verse 2]
It's kind of half expected
From a mind that's so self-neglected
To fixate on how it would be to live in a body that you see as more perfected
But I know you know that it's all made up
But this state of mind it keeps you down and beats you rough
And as long as you compare yourself to her insanity will keep you cursed
You'll never end the worst
You said you said
[Pre-Chorus]
Such a beautiful smile she has
I know you know I'm right
Yeah I think it's time to fix this connection that keeps you dark inside
[Chorus]
Deceiving she never was the real thing
Believing it bleeds your soul out dry
You turn a deeper shade of green on your phone like every evening
Can you let me change your mind
[Bridge]
She's not all you've been believing it's deceiving you and baby it's a lie
You've got to look inside yourself with kinder eyes
She's not all you've been believing it's deceiving you and baby it's a lie
You've got to look inside yourself and change your mind
[Chorus]
Deceiving she never was the real thing
Believing it bleeds your soul out dry
You turn a deeper shade of green on your phone like every evening
Can you let me change your mind
[Outro]
Feeding these condescending feelings
You're reading until they bleed you dry
You turn a deeper shade of green on your phone like every evening
Can you let me change your mind
