Mercury Lyrics
"Purest Grey"

Hate ain't red, despair ain't black,
It's a blinding glow you can't see through.
Endless colours blend to shades of grey.
Green as hope and deep blue fear,
A purple flow that we all know.
All these colours shining on my face.

This room inside of me is still dark and empty.
Can't you see the walls are all painted black,
Painted red from the blood of my dreams,
Painted brown by years of taking SHIT!
But these colours they don't mean a thing... and
Everything.

I colour-blind my soul,
Overpaint my shadow on the wall... before it takes
Control.
'Cause all these colours never stay.
My soul is drowned in the purest grey.

Beams of light divide the haze.
All these colours shining on my face.
Endless colours blend to shades of grey.
Yellow like the sun they say?
Can't you see the sky's all grey!
All these colours shining on my face.

This room inside of me is still dark and empty.
Can't you see the walls are all painted black,
Painted red from the blood of my dreams,
Painted brown by years of taking SHIT!

I colour-blind my soul,
Overpaint my shadow on the wall... before it takes
Control.
'Cause all these colours never stay.
My soul is drowned in the purest grey.
Ahhh!... before it takes control, control, yeayeah!
My soul is drowned in the purest grey.
'Cause all these colours never stay.
My soul is drowned in the purest grey.
