lyrics

Gray

In the dream I floated on
The mist of desperation
The silent screams
Causing elevation

Follow me they cried
Coming from afar
The reasons they died
Don’t know where they are

Tried to find a place to go
Where everybody smiles
There nobody knows
All the endless miles

Take me higher, take me far
Show me madness, show me stars
Show me where they are

Misguided direction
From the chosen few
Popular sedation
In the living room
Sail away to another day
We try to follow all you say
We try to hold our hands up hand
Try to move along
But in the end all you say
Ends up being wrong

You can only take so much
Before the levee breaks
Hopeless fanatic look at me
Before it's too late
Sail away to another day
We try to follow all you say
Fill my mind all you want
I am breaking free
Leave behind my own thoughts
For all the world to see

Lead me on-Take me to that empty place
Lead me on-Take me to the deepest space
Lead me on-Journey high above our homes
Lead me on-Never feel you are alone

We arrive
We arrive
We arrive to that point in time
Come to find, we didn't think so
Endless minds, they make the bind
Are we blind, we didn't think so

If we now seize the day
And tomorrow runs away
We watch as the children play
Not knowing the world they make
We dream of old endless tales
Of the oceans we've tried to sail
If the clouds fall from the sky
The mist will gray within our eyes
Within our eyes

Shadows crept from the sky
Amazing wonder in our eyes
Find it hard, hard to stand
Asking myself who I am
I see what I cannot explain
I feel in awe, no more pain
Blinded by mist I cannot see
I feel so small in the grand scheme

You approach us – thought I cannot see
You know us – how can this be
You make us – the mirror of me
You break us – to unlock the key

Lead me on – To another day
Lead me on – Out of the sea of gray
Lead me on – Should we follow, should we stay
Lead me on – Will you wish my dreams away

In the dream I floated on
The mist of desperation
Silent screams
Causing elevation

Follow me they cried
Coming from afar
The reasons they died
Don’t know where they are

Tried to find a place to go
Where everybody smiles
There nobody knows
All the endless miles

Take me higher, take me far
Show me madness, show me stars
