A Thousand Shades of Grey
Beads of dew on windowpanes drip slowly to the floor
Where we lay as one, shrouded in the dawn
It's all I ever wanted, and all I'll ever need
So sew yourself into my skin so I can someday feel at peace
It meant everything to me
I found no hope in this affliction
Throw myself into the jaws of despair
And pray your teeth shred my skin to the bone
Like you had hoped to from the beginning
The shreds of light have become too much to withstand
I pray for darkness inside this empty cell I call my own
Vacant my skull remains
It once held a part of you that I cherished so profoundly
Bound by chains of thorns plucked from the flowers that we grew
In a garden where we felt not love, only absence of affection
I'll gouge out the roots that we planted
As your bright and vibrant stare becomes a thousand shades of grey
Droplets of dew on my windowpane
Gather to flood us from this home
Sew yourself into me
So I can someday feel at peace
The shreds of light have become too much to withstand
I pray for darkness inside this empty cell I call my own
Vacant I will remain
Forever trapped in this disdain
Where we lay as one, shrouded in the dawn
It's all I ever wanted, and all I'll ever need
So sew yourself into my skin so I can someday feel at peace
It meant everything to me
I found no hope in this affliction
Throw myself into the jaws of despair
And pray your teeth shred my skin to the bone
Like you had hoped to from the beginning
The shreds of light have become too much to withstand
I pray for darkness inside this empty cell I call my own
Vacant my skull remains
It once held a part of you that I cherished so profoundly
Bound by chains of thorns plucked from the flowers that we grew
In a garden where we felt not love, only absence of affection
I'll gouge out the roots that we planted
As your bright and vibrant stare becomes a thousand shades of grey
Droplets of dew on my windowpane
Gather to flood us from this home
Sew yourself into me
So I can someday feel at peace
The shreds of light have become too much to withstand
I pray for darkness inside this empty cell I call my own
Vacant I will remain
Forever trapped in this disdain
