Shades of Grey |
| When the world and I were young |
| Just yesterday |
| Life was such a simple game |
| A child could play |
| It was easy then to tell right from wrong |
| Easy then to tell weak from strong |
| When a man should stand and fight |
| Or just go along |
| But today there is no day or night |
| Today there is no dark or light |
| Today there is no black or white |
| Only shades of gray |
| I remember when the answers seemed so clear |
| We had never lived with doubt or tasted fear |
| It was easy then to tell truth from lies |
| Selling out from compromise |
| Who to love and who to hate |
| The foolish from the wise |
| But today there is no day or night |
| Today there is no dark or light |
| Today there is no black or white |
| Only shades of gray |
| It was easy then to know what was fair |
| When to keep and when to share |
| How much to protect your heart |
| And how much to care |
| But today there is no day or night |
| Today there is no dark or light |
| Today there is no black or white |
| Only shades of gray |
| Only shades of gray |
