Shades of Grey - Symphony X

Seasons changing now — summer’s come

And I’ll be on my own

Just bear another day

I have wondered — if I can turn back hands of time

I’ll try, just try another way

I don’t know why my heart keeps calling

But I really don’t want you to stay

I have my reasons to keep from falling

Then cast me into shades of gray

Life’s an endless stage — wisdom comes with age

Can’t you see what mindless games we play

(So the end)

So the end is near — captured by the spirit in the wind

You keep calling out to me

I’ll find my way

I’ll see it through

I don’t know why my heart keeps calling

But I really don’t want you to stay

I have my reasons to keep from falling

Then cast me into shades of gray

When the curtain falls — I’ll hold my head up high

And curse you all

Such vicious games we play

I don’t know why my heart keeps calling

But I really don’t want you to stay

I have my reasons to keep from falling

Then cast me into shades of gray

I don’t know why my heart keeps calling

But I really don’t want you to stay

I have my reasons to keep from falling

Then cast me into shades of gray
