Dancing in the Grey - Michael Malarkey

Oh, how we pray upon

The signs and banners now

The times are still to find

In this cold, wildest room

Where I can call the shots

And no-one tells me what to do

The medication’s run out

And now I’ve gotta choose

To try to fill the void

Or soak it up in shit again

Like runaround Sue

No-one tells me what to do

'Til I step outside

Say, 'it's all for you'

So I can mask the truth

And hide the blues

My teeth are grinding

And the mirror’s laughing and I

I wonder if there’s others in this bulletproof room

My eyes are boiled now

Nothing’s shocking and I

I wonder if there’s others in this bulletproof room

I face the wall of worry now

But I won’t let you fall lower than me

Or get higher than me

Or go faster than me

Or grow older than me

Or feel colder than me

Or get higher than me

Or go faster than me

Or grow older than me

Or feel colder than me

And I said

Give me a jetpack

I’m not looking down

And I said

Give me a jetpack, baby

I’m not looking down

Give me a jetpack

I’m not looking down

We’re spinning round in this room

No-one knows what’s going on

We’re dancing in the grey

And on a route to the moon

Masked by the overcast

Dancing in the grey

We’re spinning round in this room

No-one knows what’s going on

We’re dancing in the grey

And on a route to the moon

Masked by the overcast

Dancing in the grey in this place

In this place

Oh, how we pray upon

The signs and banners now

The times are still to find

In this cold, wildest room

Where I can call the shots

But I guess that’s nothing new

'Til I step outside

Say, 'it's all for you'

So I can mask the truth

And hide the blues

So I step outside

I say, 'it's all a ruse'

And now I speak the truth

It’s all for you

And I said

Give me a jetpack

I’m not looking down

And I said

Give me a jetpack, baby

I’m not looking down

Give me a jetpack
