Grey With Hints Of Blue
06:43

When I was a young boy
My heart broke in pieces
Twenty years later
The rest had all turned grey
I tried to change
but all my feelings were
different shades of blue
The rainbow teased
But that just wasn't me
I know who I am
I suffered in all possible ways
It couldn't get worse
Grey is my mind
Grey is my light
Grey is my life
With hints of blue
All I ever had
were red plastic lips with painted smiles
I didn't matter
How pretty their fucking faces were
One night stands
Never made me feel good at all
I never got it
And still I haven't got anything
Grey is my mind
Grey is my light
Grey is my life
With hints of blue
When I go to my bed
I think of you and then smile
I wish I was someone you could love
But I am who I am
Don't hate me please
It's not my fault the way things turned out
Keep the good times
We spent together when things were good
I'll see you again
in my grey dreams with hints of blue
Grey is my mind
Grey is my light
Grey is my life
With hints of blue

Pure

Many years ago
When I was a boy
I had a precious soul
Untainted by the world
You could feel
The happiness
Reaching out
Filling space
An angel pure
Buried in the soil
Was a metal box
All the things I loved
Are sealed forevermore
Now I see
A shadow
My former self
Is gone
An angel pure
uhhh
uhhh
uhhh
uhhh
Sometimes I wish for
My innocence to come back
Back when I was young
And everything was so new
You could feel
The happiness
Reaching out
Filling space
Reaching out everywhere
An angel pure

The One I Love

|
|

I feel the sun again
warming up my skin
Awake in dreams
So real
I wish it never ends
Ahhh (x4)
I see your face so pale
Smiling innocence
It makes me feel so good
Your laughter in my head
Ahhh (x8)
You call my name so softly
A whisper in my ear
Your deep brown eyes
Make me feel
So loved inside my heart

Chest Pain

|
I think you are not
Cut out to be here
So sly
So sly
I think you are not
worthy of my time
you liar
you liar
I feel the burn inside
this chest pain
won’t go away
I think you are just
waiting for the time
to fly
to fly
I think you are just
planning for a way
to escape
to fade
You toyed with my soul
You toyed with my mind
You toyed with my heart
You toyed with my life
Stay away from me

The Face Of The Void
02:10
|
|
||
|
Down here
Away from the sun
Inside
A blackened soul
Infected
Corrupted
Addicted
To a nameless vice
The face of the void
it swallows all hope
The face of the void
it feeds on your soul
Down here
Away from the sun
Outside
A shadowy ghoul
Infected
Corrupted
Addicted
To a faceless crime
The face of the void
It swallows all hope
The face of the void
It feeds on your soul

Alternative #6

Exit mind
Soon to be
Blind and lost
Dead end near
Going down
Through the sink
Adrift
Trying to understand
Are we good enough
to live without worrying much?
Without pain?
Are we good enough
To face our most dreaded fears
Within?
I’m looking for the answer
In alternative #6
Exit life
Soon to be
Pale and cold
Silent fear
Filling up
The thick air
Adrift
Trying to understand
Are we good enough
to live without worrying much?
Without pain?
Are we good enough
To face our most dreaded fears
Within?
I’m looking for the answer
In alternative #6

To Be With You
05:10
|
|
||
|
When I look at you
I don’t know how to feel
If I smile at you
I don’t know how you’ll take it
If I was
Someone you could love
And be
Be with you
And be
Be with you
There is something about you
I haven’t felt in years
And it’s good to know
I’m not dead inside
But you’re not
Feeling the same way
To be
To be with you
To be
To be with you

This Word Called Love

What is this word called love
a word that can bring so much joy and happiness
What is this word called love
It can turn your life from bliss to misery
What is this word called love
My life was ruined almost twice by it
What is this word called love
My worst sorrows in life are all caused because of it
I can’t stop loving
I can’t stop loving
Curse this agony
Curse this broken heart
It might end up killing me
What is this word called love
A word that’s filled with hope and dreams
What is this word called love
A word that’s filled with sadness and pain
What is this word called love
A word that’s filled with rage and despair
What is this word called love
I’ve seen my life withering away
I can’t stop crying
I can’t stop crying
Curse this warm feeling
Curse this sense of longing
It might end up killing me

I Don't Hate You
07:48
|
|
||
|
I wish I could’ve done something
I wish I could just understand
How things went to Hell
Just overnight
I can see you felt just left aside
I can see you felt just waiting by
For me to change, For things to change
To no avail
I just saw your face of worry
I just didn’t try hard enough
For you not to be, For you not to feel
Unworthy
And I did some terrible things
And my stupid pride got in the way
And I carried on being myself
And I saw you just slipping away
But I know
But I know
You don’t hate me
And I know
And I know
I don’t hate you
You treated me like a real man
You were in love and so was I
But things just started, to fade
Into dust
I gave you my whole heart and even more
I made you laugh and I made you cry
But somehow I stopped making you feel
Like a woman
You had to endure my stubbornness
You had to deal with my bipolar mess
But you had your own troubles in your mind
It made you unhappy
And you said some terrible things
And you made me feel so low
And you just couldn’t understand
And you saw me just fading to black
But I know
But I know
You don’t hate me
And I don’t
And I don’t
I don’t hate you
I think about you everyday
I keep myself from calling you
To let you be, to let you see
You're free
I still have your pictures with me
I keep them under my bed
So I can keep your memories
Close to me
I'm at peace with the way things are now
I won't force you to be with me
Because time will tell If we can be a couple
Or just friends
And I know
And I know
You don’t hate me
And you know
And you know
I don’t hate you

Time Flies, the centerpiece of the great album The Incident, is done acoustically here to great effect. Stripped of much of its production, the song still shines in its introspective lyrics and rhythms.
