As I wonder through the darkness,
choking on my despair
there emerges a figure.
Not a figure of evil,
nor a figure of salvation.
This figure was you.
As I adjusted my eyes to your beauty
your purpose became clear to me.
You haven't come to save me,
but you haven't come to push me under.
Rather you have come to stand next to me.
As I am in the darkness you share your light.
It acts as an umbrella surrounding me,
Trying to find me,
Only at first my darkness hid your light.
But now we stand together
In this perfect shade of grey
In this beautiful shade of grey.
My beautiful shade of grey.
choking on my despair
there emerges a figure.
Not a figure of evil,
nor a figure of salvation.
This figure was you.
As I adjusted my eyes to your beauty
your purpose became clear to me.
You haven't come to save me,
but you haven't come to push me under.
Rather you have come to stand next to me.
As I am in the darkness you share your light.
It acts as an umbrella surrounding me,
Trying to find me,
Only at first my darkness hid your light.
But now we stand together
In this perfect shade of grey
In this beautiful shade of grey.
My beautiful shade of grey.
