....Ani DiFranco - Grey....



....cançó perfecta per un dia com avui....




The sky is gray
The sand is gray
And the ocean is gray

And I feel right at home

In this stunning monochrome
Alone in my way

I smoke and I drink

And every time I blink
I have a tiny dream

But as bad as I am

I'm proud of the fact
That I'm worse than I seem

What kind of paradise am I looking for?

I've got everything I want and still I want more
Maybe some tiny shiny key
Will wash up on the shore

You walk through my walls

Like a ghost on TV
You penetrate me

And my little pink heart

Is on its little brown raft
Floating out to sea

And what can I say

But I'm wired this way
And you're wired to me

And what can I do

But wallow in you
Unintentionally
What kind of paradise am I looking for?
I've got everything I want and still I want more
Maybe some tiny shiny key
Will wash up on the shore

Regretfully

I guess I've only got three
Simple things to say:
Why me?
Why this now?
Why this way?
With overtones ringing
And undertows pulling away
Under a sky that is grey
On sand that is grey
By an ocean that's grey

What kind of paradise am I looking for?

I've got everything I want
And still I want more
Maybe some tiny shiny key
Will wash up on the shore....
