Blaze Of Grey

Of things to do inside but not fit in with anything

But thinking and reading and drinking and screaming and

Staying up late nights in smokey bars dreaming

Let me in, let me out, get me in, let it out

Let it sit, gotta hold, gotta grip, let it go

Sleeping most of my days away

And then waking up in a blaze of gray

I just can't pull it off and face the day

So I'm sleeping most of my days away

Sleeping most of my days away

And then waking up in a blaze of gray

I just can't pull it off and face the day

So I'm sleeping most of my days away

I'm just another bitter literalist

Hey, live and relax literature and get literally pissed

Pour out a little liquor for your dead mind

Pour a bit a fine, you can let the light in and fill it

There ain't no sunshine when she's gone

Only darkness everyday

I wonder this time where she's gone

And if she's gone to stay

I must insist for this us to exist

We have to learn to live alone and keep growing on our own

I know right from wrong and know sight from song

And slight the strong, I take flight, but in spite I'm hanging on

Damn right I'm doing dope things I can't help growing

I gotta keep on keeping on, the lawn needs mowing

The dishes need doing, I need to do some more screwing

And usually I'm pretty choosy, but when boozy I'm only human

And if you see me at the party wearing nothing but the lampshade

Well, you know I come apart, but at least I've got band-aids

And the band played on for the handmaiden to remain

And the dudes who stayed on got laid til day dawn

I've made claims before that were different than my aim

Now I stand behind my words and I'm not calling out names

Like which Claire was it? And where was it located?

I still have the naked photos of the few ladies I dated

Dammit, I know you're listening 'cause sometimes I can hear you

And if it's nearby, I can feel your heart beating

We keep leaving things be and it's not easy to contain

Keeping ominously calm when it never stays the same

Weaving through time like your touch could soothe my mind

I used to find clues to who I was but now I'm blind

All drunk on wine and punk rock wretching

And I'm not a mess, I just pass out resting

Free as a bird

But this was the problem

I don't feel she dissed me but I feel I got a bum rap

The only thing I've learned is good girls are hard to find

Now you've been exposed like a personal address

Free as a bird

But this was the problem

I don't feel she dissed me but I feel I got a bum rap

The only thing I've learned is good girls are hard to find

Now you've been exposed like a personal address

Everybody now

Sleeping most of my days away

And then waking up in a blaze of gray

I just can't pull it off and face the day

So I'm sleeping most of my days away

Sleeping most of my days away

And then waking up in a blaze of gray

I just can't pull it off and face the day

So I'm sleeping most of my days away

You go places that you don't wanna go

Discover the dark side

Lucky if you get back and don't burn up

I think you're actually becoming too much of a fool
