[Part I] so where do we begin and what else can we say? when the lines are all drawn what should we do today? [Part II] are you listening am i here screaming? drowning in a silent sea or only dreaming? drifting in and out his mind never rests lying in shadows replaying a thousand regrets can you hear me am i getting through? a million miles away or here beside you? drifting in and out his heart never forgets lying in shadows replaying a thousand regrets and the minutes just pass as the hours change and the shifting sands slowly rearrange drifting in and out his mind never rests lying in shadows replaying a thousand regrets [Part III] there's a cloud above us and there's a shadow on us and outside of us hangs this shade of gray rain falling hours crawling all around this shade of gray there's a chill about us and there's a sadness with us and deep within us lies this shade of gray rain falling hours crawling all around this shade of gray this shade of gray ''rain's falling, hours crawling'' this shade of gray ''rain's falling, hours crawling'' there's a space beside us and there's miles between us and all around us grows this shade of gray rain falling hours crawling all around this shade of gray rain falling hours crawling all around this shade of gray this shade of gray ''rain's falling, hours crawling'' this shade of gray ''rain's falling, hours crawling'' [Part IV] listen only us breathing and the rain keeping time dividing the silence in a distant thunder listen only hearts beating and the rain keeping time measuring out the minutes and taking us under [Part V] murdered in munich crucified in rome was killing time on the long road home let nothing bleed into nothing and did nothing let nothing bleed into nothing and did nothing at all withered in winter wished away the night was out of mind while out of sight let nothing bleed into nothing and did nothing let nothing bleed into nothing and did nothing at all let nothing bleed into nothing and did nothing let nothing bleed into nothing and did nothing at all watched the days just pass as the seasons changed and the shifting sands slowly rearranged but i will not eulogize i won't apologize i will not defend anymore, anymore i will not dramatize i won't soliloquize i will not pretend anymore, anymore [Part VI] i know that i don't know you and you couldn't know me but time and space collided and here we are, here we are i know that you don't understand and i can't explain but circumstance conspired and here we are, here we are ''the time is four nineteen...'' ''time flies...'' ''???'' ''the answer is no...'' and i know we can't turn back all the years time reflected in a shade of gray but i often wonder what could have been and i still hold on to yesterday and i know we're not children any more innocence lost in a sea of gray but i often wonder what else could be and i still dream of running away so where do we begin and what else can we say? when the lines are all drawn what should we do today? [Part VII] stare from the darkness hear the silence call? devise divisions, delay decisions, watch the hours crawl and... let nothing bleed into nothing and do nothing? let nothing bleed into nothing and do nothing at all? recite soliloquies to shadows on the wall? revise revisions, reverse decisions watch our heros fall and... let nothing bleed into nothing and do nothing? let nothing bleed into nothing and do nothing at all? ''i want you to do me a favor...'' ''i want you to get a gun...and just shoot me! shoot me!'' let nothing bleed into nothing and do nothing? let nothing bleed into nothing and do nothing at all? let nothing bleed into nothing and do nothing? let nothing bleed into nothing and do nothing at all? [Part VIII] [Instrumental] [Part IX] stayed up late last night lying here in bed looking for words to say the things i left unsaid wind at my window
