Lyrics

Grey Cloudy Lies

[Verse 1]

And I thought to close my mouth

With a padlock on the night

Leave the battlefield behind

Stay out the fight

Not lose my sight

[Verse 2]

Now I only want to be

With no pistol at my brain

But at times it gets so lonely

Could go insane

Could lose my aim

[Verse 3]

Now I only want to live

With no teardrops in my eyes

But at times it feels like no chance

No clear blue skies

Grey cloudy lies

[Outro]

No clear blue skies

Grey cloudy lies
