Grey Lyrics - Prometheus: The Discipline Of Fire And Demise - Emperor

when all is dark 

there are no points of reference 

and we no longer navigate 

by the stars 

we just end up somewhere 

...nowhere... 

where lights are dim 

and shades of black are grey 

time appears like a golden calf 

while the moments slip away 

a search for the freedom in the future 

when the hours fall behind 

I can always die 

another day 

desperately I seize tomorrow 

all out of my reach 

that is what I learned 

this is what I teach 

corruption seems to flourish 

while promises decay 

where lights are dim 

and shades of black are grey 

where lights are dim 

and shades of black are grey 

from the moment of arrival 

we are led astray 

with nothing but a distant cry 

from deep within a soul 

a wordless voice 

to guide us on the way 

desperately we name the voice 

and make the cries our own 

as if to deny the fact 

that we are all alone 

in solitude we mingle 

disillusioned we fall prey 

where lights are dim 

and shades of black are grey
