So -
I was working, playing my guitar and then this came to me. It literally just shot out of my head to papers using red ‘magic marker’ ink.

Grey
I thought of Oklahoma
And dreamt out by the bay
I screamed in California
But it’s all gone away
I squeezed out juice from a tangerine
I cried out once in pain
But no one heard a single tear
Cuz they had gone away
I sat at a table with a racist punk
Spewed anger, hate and pain
So I got up and I walked out
And then I went away
I am gray
I am gray
I am gray
I am gray
Sealed inside my trance-like state
Alone now by the fire
My clay dog sits right by my side
not too far away
I drive and drive ’til I reach the end
But it’s not really the end
I am not cold I am not warm
My mood set to away
I am gray
I am gray
today, today
I am gray
Where are you Oklahoma
And dreams that have all passed
I lie awake alone to shake
Everything away
Where are you California
& San Francisco Bay
I want a way to feel again
But I have turned away
I am gray
I am gray
I am gray
I am gray
I am gray
I am gray
I am gray
I am gray
