Rose Tinted Glass

I know you want me To open up Free myself But darling - Aren't I beautiful Behind this rose tinted glass? I've grown up in this prison Built it myself Made it glamorous and sparkling Hoping all would ignore The wretch Locked inside Here I've been Trapped so long I've forgotten How to get out Please - Don't turn away! Maybe you can be the one To break through The one to save me Yet - As you disappear I can do nothing You can't hear my cries The glass is too thick No one can see Lonely tears Streaming down my face They are hidden Behind this lovely Rose tinted glass.
