Black & Grey Lyrics - Singles - Melodramus

Light breaks through cracks in the sky, 

My world is crashing down one truth at a time. 

The ground is shaking, the walls are caving in, 

Now I'm treading neck-deep in a pool of your sin. 

These shades of black have never felt so gray- 

It's a blur I must confess, 

Nothing's ever what it seems- 

Certainty's sure a mess 

And so I'm here - it's on - my love for the con. 

There's just more and more appeal for what you said was so wrong, 

The line is drawn, my conscience broke free - 

Ready, aim, take take take take take me! 

Smile and wave as your life flys by... 

I never thought it would come to this - 

a shattered dream and a bloody fist. 

No one should wish this upon anyone... 

How can you tell me what's real?! 

Or tell me how to act, think and feel? 

It's my world - you're just living in it, 

A weak signal that won't transmit. 

These shades of black have never felt so gray - 

It's a blur I must confess, 

Certainty and absolution - 

Words you'll never possess 

And so who's right? Who's wrong? Who really cares? 

Get up off your knees - I don't need your prayers. 

These ideals are lazy, the gods are crazy, 

Fire a shot through the smoke so hazy. 

Smile and wave as your life flys by... 

I never thought it would come to this - 

a shattered dream and a bloody fist. 

No one should wish this upon anyone... 

Smile and wave as your life flys by, 

Your perception is a cage, 

That'll suck you dry!!
