thanks to everybody who came out to see my band. it was awesome.

anyhoo, i wrote a song today. it's piano and vocals, and it kinda sounds like we're so far away by mae. and it's not super sad, which is wierd, because i've been rather sad lately. anyhoo, let me know what you think.

The Vivid Gray

within this world
we separate
the ones we love from where we stand
it helps to know
that we are not alone
there is a place
between love and hate
where the heart is beating from
between the dark and the light
and the mirror that you fight

keep on singing along
because you know they're not listening
i know this is not what you dreamed
but in times like these
we've got to hold on
'cause there's a place where we can stay
it's called the vivid gray

we all would claim
we live our lives
for love and truth and light
except for when we need the dark to make us feel alive
we live between
what's wrong and right
and you are not along
no you are not alone
there is a place
between love and hate
where the heart is beating from
between the dark and the light
and the wordless prayer you offered up tonight

don't die for love
and sure as hell don't live for hate
when tears are shed
and angels find their place
for once in our lives
we've found a home where we can stay
between what's wring and right
where we love and where we die
this vivid gray is where we live our lives

yeah, the song's not sad. even though i feel sad. and somebody's making me sad. and they don't even know they're doing it. i guess i'm feeling rather in the gray myself right now...
