Lyrics Shades of Green - The Classic Crime

Shades of Green

Gave up God for lent this year
Stopped going to the church
Learned to fight within myself
The war beyond the words
Found a way to reconcile
Forget my fears and learn
The inner price of peace
From endless posturing and work
But here’s the thing
I’m finding the truth I’ve always known
That it’s a blink
You only get one shot always go
I want different shades of green
Let the wilderness teach me something
Different shades of green
I want different shades of green
I want to imitate the mystery
Different shades
Different shades of green
The spirit is unbroken
Yeah the potions everywhere
And charting all the oceans hasn’t hid me from it’s stare
Classified as hopeless now they pity me with care
But the rising tide that sunk my ship left it beyond repair
But here’s the thing
I’m finding the truth I’ve always known
That it’s a blink
You only get one shot always go
I want different shades of green
Let the wilderness teach me something
Different shades of green
I want different shades of green
I want to imitate the mystery
Different shades
Different shades of green
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
I want different shades of green
Let the wilderness teach me something
Different shades of green
I want different shades of green
I want to imitate the mystery
Different shades
Different shades of green
Oh-woah
Oh-woah
Oh-woah
Oh-woah
Oh-woah
Oh-woah
