Shades of gray 
Hate influence 
A constant truth 
Put into effect 
The question 
On a dead friends face 
The tragic 
Stance he used to fake 
Passed away for circumstance 
  
A forced exit out of 
Innocence 
The right to choose 
Stays in her head 
Systematic ignorance 
A politicians 
Hand in your pants 
Searching 
For what he don't have 
  
Creating new obscenities 
Harassed 
And broken down and in 
An eye towards 
Eternity 
A passing glance 
And half a chance 
At sanity 
Shows you 
Things... they get away 
  
It's all we can do 
To ride it on through 
No one 
Leaves the caravan 
  
Feel the signs 
The jazz... the band 
Affection 
For a certain time 
A haze of mid-life 
Drunkeness 
You're crucified for what 
You're art says 
If art is 
God... true art has left
