[Part I]



so where do we begin

and what else can we say?

when the lines are all drawn

what should we do today?



[Part II]



are you listening

am i here screaming?

drowning in a silent sea

or only dreaming?



drifting in and out

his mind never rests

lying in shadows

replaying a thousand regrets



can you hear me

am i getting through?

a million miles away

or here beside you?



drifting in and out

his heart never forgets

lying in shadows

replaying a thousand regrets



and the minutes just pass

as the hours change

and the shifting sands

slowly rearrange



drifting in and out

his mind never rests

lying in shadows

replaying a thousand regrets



[Part III]



there's a cloud above us

and there's a shadow on us

and outside of us

hangs this shade of gray



rain falling

hours crawling

all around this shade of gray



there's a chill about us

and there's a sadness with us

and deep within us

lies this shade of gray



rain falling

hours crawling

all around this shade of gray

this shade of gray

"rain's falling, hours crawling"

this shade of gray

"rain's falling, hours crawling"



there's a space beside us

and there's miles between us

and all around us

grows this shade of gray



rain falling

hours crawling

all around this shade of gray



rain falling

hours crawling

all around this shade of gray

this shade of gray

"rain's falling, hours crawling"

this shade of gray

"rain's falling, hours crawling"
