Grey Keys

When i was just a young boy,

Just a lad upon your knee.

I would ask the questions,

And youd always answer me.

Id ask you why is the sky blue,

Tell me who do i turn to.

When its shattered and fallen,

Tell me who do i call then.

Would it be you.

When i was a young man,

Just the age of eighteen.

I would ask the questions,

You couldnt always answer me.

Id ask you why are they so cold,

And their backs turn as easily.

The friends that i love so,

Have become my worst enemies.

The home that i once knew,

Is now the ride to look forward to.

So i smile and say,

And i sing this melody the whole way.

I know that life is just a game and everybodys keeping score.

I thought i made my way the best i can,

I can ask for nothing more.

I thought id learned a thing or two in this world,

How could i be sure.

Im sorry ive not been myself these days.

I never felt like this before.

These past few months have been such hell.

Walking this tight line,

I spent my whole life,

Preparing for the end.

Ive spent my whole life,

Wishing for the end.
