The Colors Have Faded

I'm not really depressed
Just sad for what we've become
What the Earth's become
In the short 12 years I've been

Spring flowers don't smell like heaven anymore
The summer sun hurts my eyes
Autumn leaves aren't as vibrant
Winter snow is grayish-tinged

No one's real anymore
Then again, where they ever?
I feel I'm living in a lie
Like a mouse in a maze

Someone's watching me above me
Studying my every move
Like a science experiment
I'm held under their gaze

My environment's being controlled
To see how I react
To the graying of the world
Which was so colorful and bright

Maybe it's just me
Maybe I'm wrong as ever
And I just can't see the colors
Then again, maybe I'm right
