Letra Pleasant Shade Of Gray

-->Repeat this cadence through 7 more bars, then,
-->Seven more bars of the cadence, and then back to
free time with
So where do we begin, and what else can we say?
When the lines are all drawn, what should we do today?

Drowning in a silent sea or only dreaming?
(guitar 1)

(guitar 2)
Drifting in and out, his mind never rests.
Lying in shadows, replaying a thousand regrets.
-->8 bars of this again
A million miles away or here beside you?
(guitar 1)

(guitar 2)
Drifting in and out, his heart never forgets.
Lying in shadows replaying a thousand regrets.

-->two more bars of this.
{rhythm figure 1}
harm. harm. harm. harm.
There's a cloud above us, and there's a shadow on us.
and outside of us hangs this shade of grey
Rain falling, hours calling all around this shade of grey
{rhythm figure 1}
-->this keeps playing when the rest fades out for 8
measures.
-->two more bars of this and then the other guitar
-->careful of the change in the clean toned guitar
here.
-->then it goes right back.
-->distorted guitar and bass play this next part
together
-->back to clean toned guitar the following chords
are arpeggiated. Here's the chords.
Listen: only us breathing
And the rain keeping time
-->This part is horribly syncopated. Pay attention
to the music.
-->Repeat that once more.
Murdered in Munich, crucified in Rome
Was killing time on the long road home.
Let nothing bleed into nothing and did nothing.
Let nothing bleed into nothing and did nothing at all.
Withered in winter, wished away the night
Was out of mind while out of sight.
Let nothing bleed into nothing and did nothing.
Let nothing bleed into nothing and did nothing at all. (2x)
But I will not eulogize. I won't apologize
I will not defend anymore, anymore.
I will not dramatize. I won't soliloquize.
I will not pretend anymore, anymore
-->bass only for 16 measures
-->this slowly fades up through 16 more measures.
I know that I don't know you, and you couldn't know me,
But time and space collided and here we are, here we are.
-->This for another 16 measures.
And I know we can't turn back all the years.
Time reflected in a shade of grey.
Solo (lead part)
And I know we're not children anymore,
Innocence lost in a sea of grey.
-->repeat
{rhythm figure 1}
Stare from the darkness hear the silence call?
Devise divisions, delay decisions, watch the hours crawl and...
Let nothing bleed into nothing and do nothing?
Let nothing bleed into nothing and do nothing at all?
Let nothing bleed into nothing and do nothing?
Let nothing bleed into nothing and do nothing at all?
-->nine measures of sound effects
Let nothing bleed into nothing and do nothing?
Let nothing bleed into nothing and do nothing at all? (2x)
-->rest for 11 bars
-->repeat
-->classical guitar and piano
