Closer To Grey

(альбом: Rev - 1994)

Clawing his way out of the doldrums
Getting sick and tired of coke and rums
We'll just have to wait and see
Because he's jumped on the wagon before
Only to crawl and beg for more

His pride is just another casualty
His pride is just another casualty
Can you see beyond today's euphoric state?
Do you remember how you'll feel tomorrow?
All the people that you hate, all the times you've had to wait
Every piece of food you ever ate reminds you of your fate

He's clawing his way out of a paper bag
Reaching for the life that he never had
And he's just one step away
'Cause he's going backwards on a two track
He's going one step forward and two steps back
Getting closer to gray

In the end there's only grieving
All his goals inside pulled thin air
Can you blame him if he's desperate?
There's nothing left for him to get
And he doesn't care that the people stare
And they do fucking stare

He's clawing his way out of a paper bag
Reaching for the life that he never had
And he's just one step away
'Cause he's going backwards on a two track
He's going one step forward and two steps back
Getting closer to gray
Closer to gray
Closer to gray
Closer to gray
Closer to gray
