Lyrics
Shades of Grey
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.
Today we live in a sound byte society
Stuck in an insipid pop culture produced apathy
We've got millions lacking in education
They find free thought to be a frustration
In a constant quest for simplicity
They're easy prey for demagoguery
CHORUS
Simple reason to pacify simple minds
In life easy answers are often hard to find
Some things defy logic no matter what you say
Real life's not black and white but many shades of grey
Fanatically religious leaders with divine rights
Just politicians with extremist eyes
Their fiery rhetoric rejected by the wise
on the foolish masses they've set their sights
Instead so few choose to think
In a sea of ignorance their ship will surely sink
CHORUS
