Everything else just fades away
I feel myself fall into the grey
Push all the rest in me away
Just enter into the grey
Set aside all the rest in my day
Push all the rest in me away
Its time to let in the grey
Hate everything I see
Avoid all the tears in me
I make all the rest in me stay
I try and avoid entering my grey
I set aside all the rest in my day
To just try to make it all go away
I embrace all the hate I see
To avoid feeling the tears in me
I push everyone away
I’ve led myself astray
Everything’s left such a dent on me
Im not the man I wanted once to be
Sometimes I want to feel a helping hand
Most of the time though, I just want to hate my fellow man
I wish I could be the once was me
But there’s just too many dents on me
Im now entering the grey
Im now entering the grey
If you could only be where I am right now
You would see, all the tears in me
If you could only be where I am right now
You would see, all the tears that live in me
In the grey, I see all the pain
In the grey, reality stares me right in the face
In the grey, I fear this place
In the grey, this swirling abyss of loss and grief
In the grey, here, there is no relief
You know Im in the grey, when my eyes seem so far away
I know Im in the grey, when everyone seems so far away
In the grey, where night never turns to day
In the grey, where I know the truest of the trues
In the grey, where I always feel worthless and used
In the grey, where Im always alone and self abused
I know when Im in the grey, when everyone seems so far away
You know Im in the grey, when my eyes seem so far away
The fear of all fears, alone
The fear of all fears, alone
The fear of all fears, alone
The fear of all fears, alone
My whole life I have been fighting the grey
My whole life I have felt this way
My whole life I’ve fought falling into the grey
My whole life I’ve felt this way
Some just die before others
Some just are meant to die before others
Some just need to die before others
Some just are meant to die before others
You know Im in the grey, when my eyes seem so far away
I know Im in the grey, when everyone seems so far away
Push everything and everyone away
Set aside all the rest in the day
Hate everything I see
Avoid all the tears in me
You left such a dent on me
I never can be the man I wanted to be
I make all the rest in me stay
To avoid being drug down into the grey
I embrace all the hate I see
To run from all the tears in me
My whole life I have been fighting the grey
My whole life I have felt this way
My whole life I’ve fought falling into the grey
My whole life I’ve felt this way
Everything else around me fades away
I feel myself enter into the grey
