Fade to Grey

How long have I been like this…
Living in this dark daze
Walking through grey mist
Mind quietly ablaze

The Sun no longer rises
The moon hangs dead in the sky
Months fly by in moments
As the seconds slowly die

Days bathed in starlight
Nights spent in despair
But everything will be alright
Because I no longer care

I took a few wrong turns
And stepped into this void
Where the flame of apathy burns
As my life is softly destroyed

Names and faces dance away
And slip nimbly from my mind
The last traces fade to grey
And wear away with time

There’s a game life plays
There’s no way to win
How many empty days
Till I relapse again

So how much longer
How much more can I take
These feelings only grow stronger
As I realize life was a mistake

Fade to Grey

As my life is softly destroyed

Names and faces dance away
And slip nimbly from my mind

How many empty days
Till I relapse again

So how much longer
How much more can I take
These feelings only grow stronger
As I realize life was a mistake
