Shade of Grey

Pour another sorrow, liquid pain in bottles

Chasin' ghosts of yesterday, lost in shadowed throttles

Memory lane's a dead end, numbness I befriend

Swallowed by the substance, where do nightmares end

Needles in my silence, scars across the timeline

Drowning out the whispers, darkness be my prime sign

Eyes heavy, visions hazy, stumbling in my mind's maze

Forgetting why I started, can't rewind these crazed days

Grey skies overhead, storm clouds in my head

Chained to these vices, on this path I tread
