In the Gray

WE ONLY LIVE HERE IN STATES OF DECEPTION

UNDER THE WARMTH OF THEIR SMILES

BEFORE INSISTING ON A CHANGE IN COMPLEXION

THEY SAW THE SPEED OF YOUR SLIDE

THEY SAW THE SPEED OF YOUR SLIDE

 IN THE GRAY WHERE THE ONES WHO KEPT YOU SAFE

 HAVE GROWN AWAY - YOU ISOLATE

 

 DEAD WRONG AGAIN

 STRUNG ALONG LIKE EVERYONE

 TORCH SONGS WERE LOST LOVES

NOW YOU’RE BENEATH THE BRACE

HIDING ALL OF YOUR FEARS IN THE CRAWLSPACE

NOW YOU BURIED THE LEAD

SO TIGHTLY BOUND YOU FELT THE STING OF GREED

 IN THE GRAY WHERE THE ONES WHO KEPT YOU SAFE

 HAVE GROWN AWAY - YOU ISOLATE

 DEAD WRONG AGAIN

 PLAY ALONG LIKE EVERYONE

 WHO’S GONE WRONG AGAIN

 EVERY TIME IT’S BEEN REPEATED

 STILL YOU FEEL YOU HAVE BEEN CHEATED

 WHERE YOU FELT NO GUIDING LIGHT

 IT SPUN YOU STRAIGHT INTO THE ASH OF NIGHT

AND THIS IS SOMETHING YOU CAN’T FACE

LOOK THROUGH THE EYES OF THE ONES WHO COULD TELL YOUR PLACE

IT’S AN ELEGANT SONG YOU SING

BUT IT DON’T MEAN A THING ANYMORE IF IT EVER DID

 DEAD WRONG AGAIN

 PLAY ALONG LIKE EVERYONE

 WHO’S GONE WRONG AGAIN
