Grey Keys

When i was just a young boy,
Just a lad upon your knee.
I would ask the questions,
And youd always answer me.
Id ask you why is the sky blue,
Tell me who do i turn to.
When its shattered and fallen,
Tell me who do i call then.
Would it be you.
When i was a young man,
Just the age of eighteen.
I would ask the questions,
You couldnt always answer me.
Id ask you why are they so cold,
And their backs turn as easily.
The friends that i love so,
Have become my worst enemies.
The home that i once knew,
Is now the ride to look forward to.
So i smile and say,
And i sing this melody the whole way.
I know that life is just a game and everybodys keeping score.
I thought i made my way the best i can,
I can ask for nothing more.
I thought id learned a thing or two in this world,
How could i be sure.
Im sorry ive not been myself these days.
I never felt like this before.
These past few months have been such hell.
Walking this tight line,
I spent my whole life,
Preparing for the end.
Ive spent my whole life,
Wishing for the end.
