Testo The Grey - Jake La Botz
Testo della canzone The Grey (Jake La Botz), tratta dall'album All Soul and No Money
Something got burned in the fire last night
Said I don't know what it was but it just ain't right
Last night
I hauled all the burning embers outside
Poured them on the ground and I prayed to the sky
Outside
The color of the ashes was the strangest gray
Smoke slow danced above them in a ghostly way
Strangest gray
And it looks like there's nothing left alive
Looks like there's nothing left alive
In the sight
The smoke brought a vision as I danced on the coals
Of a blackened dove and a bleached out crow
On the coals
They talked about a time before the flood
When they didn't know each other because they were one
Before the flood
And it looks like there's nothing left alive
Looks like there's nothing left alive
In the sight
They brought me to the place where the old man died
Singing "Go Tell Aunt Rhody" down by the riverside
Old man died
At the service I saw his skin and hair turn to gray
So that it matched the box supplied by the state
It turned to gray
And it looks like there's nothing left alive
Looks like there's nothing left alive
In the sight
I watched as the hearse went a-rolling by
Caught my reflection in the glossy shine
Rolling by
And I saw the tears standing on my face
I went to wipe them away but there wasn't a trace
On my face
And it looks like there's nothing left alive
Looks like there's nothing left alive
In the sight
And blood came pouring down from the sun
And ever since then all the color's been gone
