Grey

Sky is grey

And the sand is grey

And the ocean is grey

I feel right at home

In this stunning monochrome

Alone in my way

I smoke, and I drink, and

Every time I blink, I

Have a tiny dream

But as bad as I am

I'm proud of the fact that I'm

Worse than I seem

What kind of paradise am I looking for?

I've got everything I want, still I want more

Maybe some tiny, shiny thing will

Wash up on the shore

You walk through my walls

Like a ghost on TV

You penetrate me

And my little pink heart

Is on its little brown raft

Floating out to sea

And what can I say but I'm wired this way?

And you're wired to me

And what can I do but wallow in you unintentionally?

What kind of paradise am I looking for?

I've got everything I want and still I want more

Maybe some tiny, shiny key will

Wash up on the shore

And regretfully, guess I've got three

Simple things to say

Why me? Why this now? Why this way?

With overtones ringin', undertows pullin' away

Under a sky that is grey

On sand that is grey

By an ocean that's grey

And what kind of paradise am I looking for?

I've got everything I want and still I want more

Maybe some tiny, shiny key will

Wash up on the shore
