Grey - Lyrics - Face Down

You closed your eyes a cold November night You my lovely light of life, no more shining bright As the autumn rain turned to bitter snow I stood outside the world, with nowhere to go A thousand shades of grey You erased my world that day A thousand words to say All lost in silence to fade away Caring faces staring right at me I can't stand their smothering empathy Like maggots crawling upon rotten meat A buffet of misery, all you can eat A thousand shades of grey You erased my world that day A thousand words to say All lost in silence to fade away A thousand shades of grey A million moments passed away A billion pieces of my heart Spreading like ashes forever dark You are not alone - Your false sympathy makes me sick You will get through - There's no happy end to this life of *** You must be strong - As I put the rope around my neck Time will heal - The colours leave this broken wreck A thousand shades of grey My trail of tears ends here today A thousand shades of grey You erased my world that day A thousand words to say All lost in silence to fade away A thousand shades of grey A million moments passed away A billion pieces of my heart Spreading like ashes forever dark No love, no light Just shades of grey [Music: Hedestedt, Skog, Lyrics: Hedestedt]
