Grey and Black

One step, two steps, three steps back
we never saw the grey and black
bleeding through the time of day
wishing all our fears away
there's something on your mind
there always is, you always find
its you, yourself, and I
in this world of false goodbyes
but your eyes are clean
so i will sing
a forever tune of distant cries
a sweeping falsehood lullaby.
Fixed and shivered,
you will not fall,
did you know i'm here at all
your voice tells me that you're afraid
a timely fate one could delay
your eyes speak for your heart
alone your soul leads life apart,
If you could see, what seems to me
the one unending certainty
you're not alone, not at all
when there is someone
to catch your fall.
One step, two steps, three steps back,
can you see us now?
it's grey and black.
