Gray over Gray - Banco De Gaia

our subconscious leading our intentions

where the light ends

gray over gray

i can see forever

all the way to yesterday

bleeding colours fall away,

night skies with no wars overhead

bleeding colours

they just fall away,

night skies overhead

with war

belief not limited

to what i hear

one heart beating,

one life lived

overcast

like a silent film

the music leading us

to the sun.

and the voices

like ours right now fade away

and i feel burned and paid.

why such fervent preaching,

when no blessings can be found?

why leave your aspirations

in the dry and cracked ground?

i have prayed for absolution,

and i have prayed for a new language

i have served my intuition

felt it cringe and hesitate

i am still waiting

i am still waiting

i am still and waiting

i am still and waiting, breaking

the shades of gray

over many shades of gray

i can see

through the shades of gray

i can shine

through the shades of gray

and then the veil is lifted

and the fog rolls on

i’m not just wet with perspiration

i can see it all

and life is beautiful

and life is beautiful

and i am beautiful

and so it goes

so i dream

and so it fills my consciousness

with all these memories

where we live

gray over gray

i can see forever

all the way thorough history

-sigh-

i believe

you can’t take that away from me

no, you can’t take that away from me

-sigh-
