Vibrant Gray
I live in a world of vibrant gray
One half night, the other day
Power to the people
But it all goes to one
A king or a queen
Now a civil war’s begun
Ying and yang
A continuous chase
A clash and clang
They pick up the pace
Winter and Summer
They fight through the year
To the beat of the drummer
They all die, My Dear
We all live in a world of vibrant gray
We stand all alone
Be it night or day
Give power to the people
It all goes to one
Kill them, though
And the civil war’s done
No beat of the drummer
He died in the war
Soldiers crumpled like paper
Like the sad smile they wore
See the world we live in is a vibrant gray
The deafening silence drives the people away
Give power to the people
But there’s now only one
He’s not a king or a queen
Just an ill healthed man
He preaches his story...
But his mind grows tired of rhyming as his word becomes old news
He lives in a world of vibrant gray
And he hopes he soon passes away
