Gray

[5th Feb 2006]

Trailing my fingers across your skin

My velvet secrets out for a spin

Believe this will slip away, fade away, disappear

Fast forward/Rewind to a time that you'll remember

when it was not all so black and white, darkness and light

Do you remember?

It's time you made up your mind

To put out the light or ignite

We've been on this carousel way too many rounds and I'm thinking over

I won't wait til it gets out of line

Stop taking your time, wasting mine

Won't be okay with this gray.

Cut it deeper to see how much of me flows

Keep it bottled and watch as it grows

Take twenty when all you need is just one more

You look dark like a prince who has lost his crown

but kept the jewels in his stare

No matter what's said, detachment underplayed

The colours fade..

It's time you made up your mind

To put out the light or ignite

We've going around and around and around and

I won't wait til it gets out of line

Stop taking your time, wasting mine

Won't be okay..with this..gray.
