Black White and Gray (feat. Derek Sherinian)

I close my eyes and remember the gentle breeze upon my cheek
The air was quiet, yeah, it was a day without a goal to seek
A callous heart of stone
A miracle that it's still beating
With no tears left to mourn
Another pair of eyes start bleeding

The time that I spent suffering
Didn't know I would find
The answer to all my hopes and dreams
Trapped inside of my mind

Within the black white and gray
I found reality
And now there's naught left to say
How can I find the truth? Yeah

Woah
I have to be set free
From this insanity
What is reality?

Woah
Don't wanna leave behind
The essence of my mind
Turn back the clock, rewind

Yeah
I know just what I am
Whatever I want I can
Achieve my goals I am death
I don't need no reason
For in this cold season
My law is your treason

Nothing is clear
Suffer in fear
You disappear

Watch as the darkness is twisting and turning
Feel as it dances and flows through your veins
Take a deep breath as your bridges are burning
Watching and waiting a ghost in the rain
Just take one sip from this black cup of poison
Feel as the demon inside takes the reigns
Open your eyes as the madness takes over
Brace yourself, baby, 'cos here comes the pain

All within the black white and gray
I found reality
And now there's naught left to say
How can I find the truth? Yeah
I'll find the truth

Tired and scared
Trapped back in there
Found in myself
Demons from hell
Wallow in shame
Sick of the pain
Shackled in chains
Back here I came
I saw you there
Naked and bare
I did my time
Try as I might
Only your lies
Left me so blind
I want to live

Open your eyes and come back to me
I will beg you
Remember love is the answer
That is true

All within the black white and gray
I found reality
And now there's naught left to say
How can I find the truth? Yeah

Woah
I feel so powerful
Watch as the hours flow
I won't back down no more

Woah
I know I've played my part
I know just what you are
So clean your callous heart

I must endure
Lucid and pure
I must survive
Blossom and thrive
I must succeed
Never concede
I want to shine
I want to feel
I want to live
Until the end
