Gray Lyrics

big bad wolf
you stare into my eyes
you're staring at my nose
you're staring at the hole
that's right between my eyes
you're staring past the lies
staring at the part
that says it never tries
but it's not so

three young pigs
they can't get any breaks
they can't get any love
well none that they can make
they're really all the same
they just took different ways
built from different bones
but always painted gray

a tree falls fast
but nobody to hear
he's sleeping in the air
he's paralyzed with fear
you're smarter than you think
you'll be smarter in a year
smarter every day
'til the end of your career
you can leave instructions on the table by the door
you can beat my brow until it's blue
told myself It'd never end up like it did before
don't know why I still believe
I can never count on me, so I've got who?

three weeks out
you're rolling in the dirt
you're rolling in the mud
you can't afford to hurt
you can't afford the blood
you can't afford to stay
unless you put it off
and wait until you're gray
old and gray

three blind mice
but one is out of reach
you stare into the night
and everything is bleached
it's all the same to you
it's all another speech
I've got nothing to learn
I've got nothing to teach
one more thing
and one just for the road
you're never by yourself
and never not alone
don't get too complete
and don't watch what you say
don't think like you're blue
and talk like you're gray

you can point it out like I'm not 22 years old
you can tell me how and tell me who
told myself the answer would be written out in bold
don't know how I find relief
I can never count on me so I've got who?
