"Sad Old Me" lyrics

"Sad Old Me"

Oh, oh, oh-ooh
Oh, oh, oh-ooh
Oh-ooh

I've been a painting
The streets that I walk on
A trail of shadows free from shine
I still remember looking in mirrors
That show our reflection with a smile

I would [?] I look around
I just pretend [?] have it all

Cover me with paint
Colors that will make me feel alive
Cover me with paint
Teach me how to laugh just like a child
'Cause I've just been sad old me for a while

Oh, oh, oh-ooh
Oh, oh, oh-ooh
Oh-ooh

I've been out sailin'
Broke all my patterns
Took on the waves to heal my mind
I still remember looking in mirrors
Wondering who took the place of mine

Look all the way [?] I look around
I just pretend to see them all

Cover me with paint
Colors that will make me feel alive
Cover me with paint
Teach me how to laugh just like a child
Cover me with paint
Colors that will make me feel alive
Cover me with paint
Teach me how to laugh just like a child
'Cause I've just been sad old me for a while

I think, "Okay, I'll play along"
Won't show you how I feel
I know how to put on a show
I'm sadder than you'll ever know
