Shades of Grey

Mountain tops and red, red clouds\nAflame with flaring gold\nSilhouetted against the eastern sky like a God\nThe trees now blue under the dusk\nThe cooling flood of evening shade\nThe lights recede, the sounds subdue\nPredators emerge from their caves\nGrayness holds my mind at stake\nAnd the lakes golden mirrors dim\nThe last rays fall into darker shade\nThe night coils around the day\nShadows turn the light into the shades of gray\nThe sun bades the world farewell\nThe queen of the night her attire aglow\nBefore her beauty I, too bow\nThese nights I should fear\nThese lights I should not follow\nThis road to nowhere leads\nI wander around in circles\nGrayness holds my mind at stake\nAnd the lakes golden mirrors dim\nThe last rays fall into darker shade\nThe night coils around the day\nShadows turn the light into the shades of gray\nThe sun bades the world farewell\nThe lights recede, the sounds subdue\nPredators emerge from their caves\nGrayness holds my mind at stake\nAnd the lakes golden mirrors dim\nThe last rays fall into darker shade\nThe night coils around the day\nShadows turn the light into the shades of gray\nThe sun bades the world farewell\nIt controls my mind\nAnd the lakes golden mirrors dim\nThe last rays fall into darker shade\nThe night chokes the day\nShadows turn the light into the shades of gray\nThe sun bades the world farewell
