Bright Grey

This is the state of my mind | when you gonna let me out of the light?
These orange and yellows aren't making me mellow
Up tight | is the state of my mind
And i never hear what the people say
Until over this river of thoughts they deliver | up tight thoughts
Into the state of my mind
Oh when are you gonna let me unwind?
'cause i'm born of thunder but stripped of my wonder
[ooh hoo]
[ooh hoo]
The world is bright grey
[ooh hoo]
I must have fallen asleep that day
[ooh hoo]
The world is bright grey,
[ooh hoo]
[ooh hoo]
And that's the state of my mind
Oh when are you gonna let me out of the light?
Fore these orange and yellows aren't making me mellow | no more
And it's a hell of a bore
[ooh hoo]
[ooh hoo]
The world is bright grey
[ooh hoo]
[ooh hoo]
I'm must have fallen asleep that day
[ooh hoo]
[ooh hoo]
The world is bright grey
[ooh hoo]
[ooh hoo]
[ooh hoo]
[ooh hoo]
And that's the sate of my mind
