Lost In The Darkness

I lost a friend today of many ages old
A great comfort to us all
Throughout our youthful years
Gave us guidance, taught us truth
Gave us treasures from so deep
Look at the ‘way’ we have repaid her

And she cries
And she cries - she cries to me
Tears of sadness - tears of pain
And she cries - she cries to me
Tears they fall so desperately

I see it with my eyes
Colors changing day by day
It’s not fiction slipping
Slowly fades away

Shades of grey
Fade to black
Darkness surrounds me
Shades of grey
Fade to black
Darkness engulfs me

I lost a friend today of many ages old
A great comfort to us all
Throughout our youthful years
We’ve shown no guidance
We’ve shown no truth
Lost all treasures from so deep
Look at the way we have repaid her

And she cries
And she cries - she cries to me
Tears of sadness - tears of pain
And she cries - she cries to me
Tears they fall so desperately

Shades of grey
Shades of grey
