Grey

Oh no, what a shame
And I fear it won't change
So keep your quotes and turns of phrase
Convince yourself I am the slave

Sleep doesn't come easy
It doesn't come fast
Impose a shallow past
You better hope those shadows pass

Keep your snapshots, the daily news
What good are they if they're something to lose
Memory fails, and I've lost a few

So call helter skelter
Thought your world was a shelter
Taming fires, say all is fine
Pay them no mind

So seconds move, and I comply
Simple rhymes keep you in time
Oversight and never mind

So call helter skelter
Hun, fetch the alka-seltzer
I'm off to bed with a glass of wine
To seek the divine
It's such a shame
And I fear it won't change
To wrestle with God
You writhe in pain
At the sound of your name
There's nothing that feels the same

It's such a shame
And I fear it won't change
To wrestle with God
You writhe in pain
There's nothing that stays the same
All will fade
Will you hope to escape
Though you weren't to blame
The lies turned to fate
And no one can stay the same
