"The Grey" lyrics - ASKING ALEXANDRIA

ASKING ALEXANDRIA
"The Grey"

The come down is killing me
The slow fade, the fast release
I know I can't keep this up forever
The light burns, please close the shades
I'm alright, I can numb the pain
I don't want to see the world today

[Pre-Chorus:]
I don't want this
I can't get out
Self loathing's overwhelming

[Chorus:]
Lay me down
And lead me into the grey
Don't make a sound
Just leave me alone in the dark

Is aching, my vision's blurred
I'm lonely, it's what I deserve
How long can I keep this up?
The silence is deafening
The demons I'm harboring
Are screaming and I can't pull away

[Pre-Chorus:]
I don't want this
I can't get out
Self loathing's overwhelming

[Chorus:]
Lay me down
And lead me into the grey
Don't make a sound
Just leave me alone in the dark

[Bridge:]
Lead me into the grey

[Pre-Chorus:]
I don't want this
I can't get out
Self loathing's overwhelming

[Chorus:]
Lay me down
And lead me into the grey
Don't make a sound
Just leave me alone in the dark
Leave me alone in the dark
Leave me alone in the dark
