The Gray
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Sometimes it's hard to hold your head up
When everything around is falling down
One day, you're living in the clouds
The next, you're sleeping on the ground
And you try to see the world through rose-colored glasses
But the gray is almost more than you can take
For today
Close your eyes and fall asleep
There's hope in dreams, tomorrow's another day
Things aren't always what they seem
The in-between is where you'll find me
Trying to find some peace of mind
Looking for the strength to carry on
It's getting rough to hold together
It's getting tough to carry on
When everything I loved or ever knew
Before your face is dead and gone
And you try to see the world through rose-colored glasses
But the gray is almost more than you can take
For today
Close your eyes and fall asleep
There's hope in dreams, tomorrow's another day
Things aren't always what they seem
The in-between is where you'll find me
Trying to find some peace of mind
Looking for the strength to carry on
Close your eyes and fall asleep
Close your eyes and fall asleep
Close your eyes and fall asleep
Close your eyes and fall asleep
