careful gaze - rainbows lyrics

the day you were born was the best day of your life
from there, you learned to smile through pain and say “it’s a good day,” even if that meant you were lying
you’ve been lying every day for a long time
you’ve been painting your possessions a deeper shade of blue
because that’s what your mother and your father asked of you

well they don’t like rainbows, do they
they don’t like rainbows, do they
and they don’t like snowflakes, either
give them a snowstorm, darling

you asked your mother what those words meant to her
she never said them, but you knew she meant them
she didn’t have tell you, you’re her liability
you heard her telling her work friends
you tried to be the boy she wished that you were
you cut your hair for her, you burnt that dress for her
you painted every wall the deepest shade of blue
they covered up the rainbow but they still couldn’t hide you

well they don’t like rainbows, do they
they don’t like rainbows, do they
and they don’t like snowflakes, either
give them a snowstorm darling
give them a snowstorm

understand you have a place on this earth
that is something you can’t afford to forget
understand you will encounter people
trying to blame someone else for their own self hatred
you were conditioned to hate yourself
based on the opinion of everyone else – rethink

you are not a label or a liability
you are a ray across the sky, don’t forget your strength
rethink
