Colour fades away

The world around me is shaded grey

I dream awake

It's all I know

A shadow of my former self

A tidal wave is crashing in

Descending thoughts are plenty

And now there's nothing left

Colour fades away

The world around me is shaded grey

Surrounded by decay

It's left me jaded

I dream awake

It's all I know

A shadow of my former self

As it crashes in

Colour drains from the walls that surround me

I tried to reach through to the outside

To find myself intertwined

With the world that surrounds mе

Embedded in my skin

Erase all hopе within

How is this happening?

It's like a lucid dream

Colour fades away

The world around me is shaded grey

Surrounded by decay

It's left me jaded

Stuck in a lucid dream

Right here in the palm of my hand

There lies a broken wretched shell of a man

And if I could I'd bury it in the sand

And go and take what I never had

So is this really the end

Or is this where a new chapter begins?

I've come this far and there's no undoing

As my mind escapes and body is going

Colour fades away

The world around me is shaded grey

Surrounded by decay

It's left me jaded

And as I walk alone

I feel the cracks inside my bones

Give under all the pressure

When the time comes

Where am I to go?
