Fade to Grey

[Verse 1] Chalk outlines where dreams used to lie, Now just shadows under a ledden sky. Brick by brick, this wall I've built, Keeps out the guilt, but the flowers wilt. [Chorus] Here in the gray, where colors bleed out, Silent screams replace the shout. Why climb so high, just to fall? In the end, does anything matter at all? [Verse 2] Empty pages, the ink's run dry, A vacant stare, no tears left to cry. Every victory's just past tense, Fighting on, but it makes no sense. [Chorus] Here in the gray, where colors bleed out, Silent screams replace the shout. Why climb so high, just to fall? In the end, does anything matter at all? [Bridge] Reach out for a spark, but grasp only smoke, Laugh at the irony, but it’s the same old joke. Where the punchline ends, and the laughter fades, We’re just actors forgotten on empty stages. [Verse 3] Footsteps echo in an abandoned hall, No echo returns, just the cold, blank wall. Graffiti souls on the concrete sprawl, Names in dust, waiting for the night to call. [Chorus] Here in the gray, where colors bleed out, Silent screams replace the shout. Why climb so high, just to fall? In the end, does anything matter at all? Why climb so high, just to fall? In the end, does anything matter at all? [Outro] So let the night fall, let the silence shout, In the void, find what it’s about. The echo’s gone, the light’s burned away, Nothing’s left but to fade, fade to grey.
