Grey

The sky is grey
The sand is grey
And the ocean is greyAnd I feel right at home
In this stunning monochrome
Alone in my wayI smoke and I drink
And every time I blink
I have a tiny dreamBut as bad as I am
I'm proud of the fact
That I'm worse than I seemWhat kind of paradise
Am I looking for?
I've got everything I wantAnd still I want more
Maybe some tiny shiny key
Will wash up on the shoreYou walk through my walls
Like a ghost on TV
You penetrate meAnd my little pink heart
Is on its little brown raft
Floating out to seaAnd what can I say
But I'm wired this way
And you're wired to meAnd what can I do
But wallow in you
UnintentionallyWhat kind of paradise
Am I looking for?
I've got everything I wantAnd still I want more
Maybe some tiny shiny key
Will wash up on the shoreRegretfully
I guess I've only got three
Simple things to sayWhy me?
Why this now?
Why this way?With overtones ringing
And undertows
Pulling awayUnder a sky that is grey
On sand that is grey
By an ocean that's greyWhat kind of paradise
Am I looking for?
I've got everything I wantAnd still I want more
Maybe some tiny shiny key
Will wash up on the shore
