Rose-Colored Shades is a deeply introspective song that captures the essence of navigating through life's hardships.
In the song Sarah Cornelia puts on her rose-colored shades, a metaphor for trying to see the world in a positive light. However, the shades can't hide the pain or evade the reality of her situation. She is searching for something true, but all she finds are shades of blue, symbolizing sadness and loneliness.
The recurring lines "These days are heavy, but they're all I've got / I'm living in a world that's filled with knots / And even though I wear my rose-colored shades / The world around me still fades" express the struggle to find hope and positivity in a challenging world.
In the midst of this struggle, Sarah Cornelia dances alone in the moonlight. The haunting memories won't let go, and the shadows grow with each step. Despite this, she continues to search for the light, hoping to find a way to make things right and see the beauty in the world and within herself.
The song ends on a hopeful note, with her continuing her journey, hoping to someday find a way to leave the shadows behind.
