A Lesson From Mr. Gray Lyrics by The Paper Kites

States

2013

[Verse 1]
Now, I could go
I feel like it any time
I'm walking out of line
And I know it

Diffused, controlled
So easy to compromise
My thoughts, and the way I talk
And the way I move

Oh you, and me
We're shifting eternally
A lesson from Mr. Gray
And I know it

And I don't mind
Think in retrospect, I might
Cause just seeing there's a habit of being
Just a matter of you

[Chorus]
Feel the vital signs
But I know it's time
Take my desire

[Verse 2]
This time you know
That it's taking its toll
The picture paints it out
Can you see it?

Alive and dead
I sicken in my bed
I'm dying of a lack of trying
What are the calls?

[Chorus]
Feel the vital signs
But I know it's time
Take my desire
And I see it never ended quite
Losing my mind
Take my desire
