I’d rather being chasing rainbows than being hurt by you And try to lose myself in fantasy than feeling sad and blue Years have passed and the reality is still like a blister sore It never truly heals when you seem to want to rub it more I’d rather be chasing rainbows than being pushed aside Years of emotional neglect is not something that subsides You really have no idea and are oblivious to my pain I try and ignore your ignorance, only to hope again I’d rather be chasing rainbows than pretending I don’t care Forgiveness is in my heart, but resentment is still there My acceptance is reality, that life is not always kind I’d rather be chasing rainbows and have some peace of mind
