Dark Shade Of Grey Lyrics - Singles - Manic Eden

(music: A. Vandenberg, lyrics: R. Young) 

There's a shadow in my life, between the black and white 

And it's blocking out the light 

I listened to what you said, it still echoes in my head 

As I lie alone in bed 

In the thickness of a line, there's a distance undefined 

The confusion's got me blind 

A dark shade of grey, tried to understand the things you say 

As you throw it all away, yeah 

It's a dark shade of grey, there's got to be another way 

To hang on for one more day 

So won't you please explain, why the sunshine turns to rain 

Why the pleasure turns to pain 

I need for you to say, when your heart began to stray 

When the fires, they've all burned away 

As I look back in my mind, could I really be so blind 

I guess I, I guess I missed the signs 

It's a dark shade of grey, tried to understand the things you say 

As you throw it all away, yeah 

Now it's a dark shade of grey, there's got to be another way 

To hang on for one more day 

(Solo) 

Oh, I'm so blinded now 

Well you know it's never clear, when emotions interfere 

When you give in to the tears 

In the dark it's hard to see, when a heart begins to bleed 

It's got me, it's got me fallin' right down to my knees 

Now it's a dark shade of grey, tried to understand the things you say 

Don't you throw it away, don't you throw it now 

Now it's a dark shade of grey, there's got to be another way 

To hang on for one more day 

Oh, baby baby baby baby, there's a dark, there's a dark shade of grey now baby 

While the sunshine turns to rain, while it turns to pain 

('Cause it's a focus in the place) oh baby 

Can't you feel it, can't you feel the cryin' for me and you now... (to fade)
