"A Thousand Shades Of Pale"
Color me a thousand shades of pale
A vain attempt for me to stay hale
Never has red touched my whitened cheek
Time's distant parting has left me weak
Frowns and sighs in shades of gray
On passing become a part of my day
Rosy pink has turned to cold, lonely blue
Golden memories silver into bleakness too
Emerald green painted my envy's passion
Turned dull by myself's self-dejection
Yearning for elusive rainbows
Of cascading colors that erase my woes
Until you return my days foresee cloudy morrows
Here tonight, as the darkness shall permeate
A silver ray escapes and glistens in my eyes
Silver memories I cling to as I forever wait
Even amidst the tear that glints in my cries
Ever I dream of the colors we'll soon create
"A Thousand Shades Of Pale"

Golden memories silver into bleakness too
Emerald green painted my envy's passion
Turned dull by myself's self-dejection

Silver memories I cling to as I forever wait
Even amidst the tear that glints in my cries
Ever I dream of the colors we'll soon create
