Doubtfully Grey

Hine-MacIver

I'm into a thing, I said
I can't give a lot
I'm out of my skin, I said
I can't feel
If only I could stand you know
I'd say goodbye;
If only I could grow
We'd stay
Doubtfully grey

Galapagos dreams, I said
Place me in your tree
Together we crawled out of the sea
I said
And we lost our tails
That's a surprise she smiled
Almost nervously
Equating apes with me
Could leave me feeling grey
Doubtfully grey
Frightfully pale

I don't understand your songs
She smiled out at me
I don't understand your drinking tea
I offered hopefully
If only words could love
You know, well, we'd dictionate
I watch you watching me and wait
Doubtfully grey
Greyfully doubt
Fullygrey doubt
