I'm seein' shades of gray | |
Enough prodding to make me hurt, which drives me to my sole desire | |
Where I got you hanging on my every word, to burn you while | |
I'm breathin' fire | |
See, 'cause | |
I got a plan, | |
I look different on this side | |
I'm somethin' like a hologram | |
Damn, that don't mean | |
I've changed, it just explains | |
How some things in my life have suddenly rearranged | |
While I'm starin' at my reflection it's lookin' somthin' like misdirection | |
Between my life, my love, and passion it's a lonely intersection | |
And my selection results in constant mental interjection | |
Giving birth to such aggression requires me to cease these sections | |
But you see, they find a way to breath | |
And for me, | |
I find no place to leave to ‘ | |
Cause I finally found somewhere to land | |
But now I can't seem to find where | |
I am [Hook] | |
I'm lost in this crowd | |
I'm seein' shades of gray | |
Lookin' for the light | |
But I only found today | |
I'm trapped in those eyes | |
And I can't look away | |
Afraid of the changes | |
But nothing stays the same [Verse 2] | |
Some say go to the light, others say you must leave it | |
But in darkness there's clarity even if you don't care to see it | |
Images taken and replayed such as this thievery | |
And there seems to be no shortage of the people in my corner who believe in me | |
But it wasn't always like this no, when | |
I was fighting | |
And I could say a million words at once but my pen was dry when it what time for writin' | |
Sometimes | |
I just don't get where the ink well goes | |
And then sometimes my pen hits paper and the rest just flows | |
Now I tried to exercise my demons but they've gotten out of shape | |
And I used to be so superhuman but it seems | |
I lost my cape | |
How could | |
I be that | |
I'm livin' so great externally when life's burnin' me and internally | |
It feels like | |
I'm lying awake on the table in surgery | |
And I'll put on a clinic, | |
I can see that you're a cynic | |
Thinkin' I photographed this picture perfect life and you weren't in it | |
So I try to live my lessons and ease off these second guessin's | |
I don't need church bells to be ringin' to go give you these confessions [Hook] [Verse 3] | |
And where that leaves me now | |
I can't seem to choose | |
I found some breadcrumbs and it seems that | |
I was leaving clues | |
But I'm confused as to what they mean | |
I know I've seen the movie but its seems that | |
I forgot the scene | |
I'm cuttin' the brakes, whatever it takes | |
The bigger the gamble the higher the stakes | |
Yeah I battled to build this and | |
I'll never back down | |
You know where you can find me now [Hook x2] |
I' m seein' shades of gray | |
Enough prodding to make me hurt, which drives me to my sole desire | |
