[ shades of gray ]

wasting minutes day by day
slowly turns a shade of gray
reaching out to you i feel
nothing, darkness, how i
look for you around the bend
look to see you here again
shouldn’t look, eyes pry away
dirty eyes
shades of gray</font color
have no fear, have no guilt
no remorse, no strong-will
bleeding wrists and decaying limbs
rotten, stale and cold i am
wasting minutes day by day
slowly turning shades of gray
kiss my lips, inject your poision
make me vomit, make me cry
make me tell another lie
about how i love this feeling so
don’t tell me that you have to go
i’m scared, don’t leave me here alone
stay with me, cast a shadow
over my eye-lids
keep me safe
promise not to go astray
promise to waste another day
drown me in your shades of gray
as candles flicker, you fade away.
