Living in the Grey

[Verse 1]
I was hopeless in the bathroom with a rainbow bar
Took twenty-seven years just to land this part
Was it all I ever wanted? Was it a dream come true?
I was lookin' in the mirror sayin', "Who the fuck are you?"

[Verse 2]
I brought my fears with me and some shiny shoes
They told me to be happy and then plied me with booze
I had a picture with my family on the background of my phone
To give myself some company, but it made me more alone

[Chorus]
And it hurts sometimes
Even when the weather's fine
Even when my child smiles
Yeah, people say it's black and white
But I'm livin' in the grey
Yeah, I'm livin' in the grey

[Verse 3]
I was pulling back my sleeves, so being salt
Clingin' to the darkness like everything was my fault
And I held to the table, I could hardly move
Yeah, my voice was kinda shaky in this crimson leather booth

[Bridge]
And I follow a whiskies mind tonight, I should stay up late
And drink to the boy I used to be and the man I am today

[Chorus]
And it hurts sometimes
Even when the weather's fine
Even when my child smiles
Yeah, people say it's black and white
But I'm livin' in—
And it hurts sometimes
Even when the weather's fine
Even when my child smiles
Yeah, people say it's black and white
But I'm livin' in the grey
Yeah, I'm livin' in the grey
Oh, yeah
Yeah, I'm livin' in the grey
