wilting flowers equate death   not what i'm about   this war of wits like vietnam   now i'm pulling out   i need a lump of something   so confused what i want   to put it down in layman's terms   i'm basically fucked   could have given everything   but that's not enough   when i asked for sugar   you substitute salt      i'm trying to think up   some miraculous strategy   to bust loose from this creeping misery      i won't settle for a gray life   i won't settle for a gray life   i won't settle for a gray life      sawing on my limbs   in this surrealistic dream   tie me up, gag my mouth   now i 'm ready to scream   sad eyed velvet painting   you don't want to be loved   titanic frontrow stateroom   you've been screwing the crew   i might be an imbecile   but i won't be a fool      i'm trying to think up   some miraculous strategy   to bust loose from this creeping misery      i won't settle on a gray life   i won't settle on a gray life   i won't settle on a gray life      i need a lump of somehting   so confused what i want   to put it down in layman's terms   i'm basically fucked      i'm trying to think up some   miraculous strategy   to bust loose from this creeping misery   i won't settle for a gray life   i won't settle for a gray life   i won't settle for a gray life   gray life
