A sad country break up song
Inspired by a dark and grey night on a bus ride home and as always the what if behind the story that image gave me.
Dark and Grey
[2024/07/15]
[Verse]
Watching drops race down the window pane.
Staring past them now out at the rain.
Heavy drops bounce straight up off the ground.
From where I sit they're void of any sound.
[Bridge]
It's dark and grey outside and in my heart.
Reasons float around. Where should I start?
The beginning then. When neither was to blame.
It's dark and grey outside, I feel the same.
[Verse]
Making my way home as I do most nights.
Always late and dark empty of light.
Don't want to turn the key, cross that floor.
Nothing shines from our home, not anymore.
[Bridge repeats]
It's dark and grey outside and in my heart.
Why she's gone from me? Where should I start?
The middle then when I guess I was to blame.
It's dark and grey outside, I feel the same.
[Break]
[Verse]
A can of soup will do once it's warmed.
Rain beats against the panes and door.
The bulb above the stove hardly glows.
Why's she's gone? God only knows.
[Bridge repeats]
It's dark and grey outside and in my heart.
Reason's float around where should I start?
The end I guess, nothin' will be the same.
It's dark and grey outside there in the rain.
[Outro]
Watching drops race down the window pane.
It's dark and grey outside. I feel the same.
