[Lyrics by K. Nardi]
Colors diluted by the lies
And painted thick across the sky
Have seen all life whither and
die
I gaze up at this forgery
Up at this dark grim tapestry
And mourn the world once promised me
Beneath this canvas
monochrome
Wrapped in the shroud of this grey home
I'll paint a picture
Nothingness surrounding me
As far as any eye can
see
This doesn't really have to be
I, deeply from the colors, drink
Feel them warming, filling me
The comfort that I need so
desperately
Beneath this canvas monochrome
Wrapped in the shroud of this grey home
I'll paint a picture all my own
So
blind beneath this canopy
So still in lifeless scenery
So pale within this shadow over me
The grey no longer satisfies
The
colors neutral to these eyes
I long again to see the sky
I search to find a brighter side
With eyes so frail against the
light
Which seems at times to burn me from inside
The grey no longer satisfies
The colors neutral to these eyes
I long again
to see the sky
Colors diluted by the lies
And painted thick across the sky
Have seen all life whither and die
I gaze upon
this forgery
Up at this dark grim tapestry
And mourn the world once promised me
Beneath this canvas monochrome
Wrapped in
the shroud of this grey home
I'll paint a picture all my own
