You with the sad eyes, don't be discouraged
Oh, I realize it's hard to take courage
In a world full of people
You can lose sight of it all
And the darkness inside you
Can make you feel so small
Annabeth, at age 12, realized that the young demigod, Percy, had a lot on his shoulders. He had recently lost his mother, discouraging him and making him feel disheartened, only to get news that his mother is alive and well, but just out of his reach. Also, having to fight Luke made her realize that he can get sucked into the void of darkness and betrayal as well. Having to fight, while protecting family from being harmed and killed, as well, could make you lose sight of the real world and turn you into a ruthless warrior, which could permanently damage the future you may have. She realized how all of this could make him feel small and useless, even though it wasn't true.
But I see your true colors shining through
I see your true colors, and that's why I love you
So don't be afraid, to let them show your true colors
True colors are beautiful, like a rainbow
Annabeth, age 15, started to love Percy, even though he was a seaweed brain. She learned more of his feelings towards his family and how he reacted to different things, as well as his personality; she saw his true colors. Annabeth didn't want him to hide his true colors from anyone else; they were what made him the way he was. She loved it.
Show me a smile, then
Don't be unhappy, can't remember when
I last saw you laughin'
If this world makes you crazy and you've
Taken all you can bear
Call me up, 'cause you know I'll be there
Through the years, Annabeth thought of how all of this may affect him. Less and less she saw him smiling. It saddened her to know that the world he was thrust in was making him unhappy. Knowing how shocking this could be, she slowly started being more compatible towards him. Soon, she became his good friend and helped him through the tough times. But what she didn't know was where all this would lead in the end.
And I'll see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors are beautiful,
Like a rainbow
She loved him. She truly loved him, and she didn't know it 'till now. She was blinded by her old love towards Luke, unable to see what was in front of her. How could she be so… stupid? Annabeth thought all of this as the war drew to a close. She thought of Percy's true colors, as well, and how much they would show now that the war is off of his shoulders. Annabeth loved his true colors, and she hoped everyone would, too. His true colors shone like a rainbow, beautiful and enthralling.
(When I last saw you laughing)
If this world makes you crazy
And you've taken all you can bear
You call me up
Because you know I'll be there
He was missing. No one knew where he was. He just vanished. Annabeth went crazy trying to find her boyfriend, the man she loved. How could he disappear? Better yet, why would he? She realized that sometimes being a demigod could make you feel a little crazy, but she didn't think he would disappear. She knew that someone more powerful, a god or goddess, had to be behind this. He would always come to her, to talk or to train… for practically anything. He wouldn't willingly disappear on her… Would he?
And I'll see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
They started to build the ship. She hoped it would bring her to him, unlike all of her fruitless searching. She thought of his loving nature and fierce loyalty, wondering if any of that changed since he left. No, not left, disappeared. She hoped that none of the things she loved about him changed. She loved him, just the way he was. She let everyone know that, too.
Your true colors
True colors
True colors
Shining through
They found him! The ship plan actually worked! She rejoiced in happiness, and that's when she realized that nothing changed, nothing at all. He was still the same old seaweed brain, just with some new skills. She loved it; she loved him!
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors are beautiful,
Like a rainbow
She and he embraced, savoring the reunion. They both enjoyed seeing the other again. Then that's when the current events dawned on her, another war was coming, and it once again had to deal with them, not a different generation. She prayed and hoped that it would not tarnish his personality or damage his current happiness. She wanted him to stay, just as he was. As she learned of the prophecy, she hoped that he would not have to give up her in the end; it would mean that all of the love they shared was pointless. She didn't want any of it to be pointless. He was her love, her best friend, her seaweed brain. She wanted it to stay that way.
