King of Grey - Will Hoge

Wake in the morning Lord I’m drunken with the dawn

Waiting on a train that I know runs no more just outside of Baltimore

Or Chicago well I just don’t know

Everyday it’s harder when you spend your time alone

Then there’s no one ever there to say hello

When the sweet morning sun does come

And it always seems to come

One day I will rise

High above it all

She will catch me if I fall

And I know I will always be the King of Grey

Sweet promises of springtime turn the brown lies of early fall

Orbiting around a love that I once called my own

Never have I felt so small

And maybe it’s the wintertime come to make me feel so cold

But there is just a slight chance that this pain comes from watching smiles

fade away

They fade away

One day I will rise

High above it all

She will catch me if I fall

And I will live today

And I will watch her dancing in the sun

My whole world’s come undone

And I know I will always be the King of Grey

Bring me summertime and take away this pain of mine

This emptiness is far too much won’t somebody please come pick me up
