Amber shades of grey

Look over the world
Through silk sheets of me

(Driving in the car
I keep seeing a hearse
At every corner)

Can't say I'm happy
Can't say I feel sane

(Curled up in a foetal pose
I feel nothing and hear naught
But scorn)

Cold and heartless
I look out the darkened glass
I think of you always

(As I lie in bed
Trying to sleep I feel
The weight of that day on my shoulders
And I feel
So aware)

My greatest wish
My darkest secret
I never want to forget you
And the hope that I held in
Your smile
And the crystal tears
You carved into my face
