Rose-Colored Glasses


Wear rose-colored glasses
And the darkness goes away, 
But switch out to blue lenses, 
Suddenly the sky turns gray.

Try a yellow tint instead
Sun’s so bright, it blocks the view,
Swap the lens to purple,
And a fog envelops you.

When shades fall off, all is revealed,
Each lens has kept the truth concealed.
