The Thick Grey Line

or,

why does my box only have one colour?





See the box? It says "Bright and Vivid Colors".


Why is the only colour in my box grey then?
The world is in colour, but I only get to colour with one...


Fear Only You
from the album "Shades of Grey"
Youth Choir... (aka the choir)

I dream in living color
But I see in shades of gray
At the dawn of understanding
Praying for the full of day
And when the San Onofre sun goes down
On concrete power domes
I may shudder for a moment
But this world is not my home


I'm not afraid of the thunder in the sky
All I fear is the lightning in Your eyes
For I love only You
And I fear only You


When the reverend waves his sword and cries
"Go save the golden dream"
From the terrace of his mansion
He won't hear the children scream
No, I won't fight the war he wages
Flesh and blood won't conquer me
But the demons know my enemy
Is my idolatry

I'm not afraid of the thunder in the sky
All I fear is the lightning in Your eyes
I'm not afraid of the rulers in this land
All I fear is the power in Your hand
For I love only You
And I fear only You
For I love only You
And I fear only You

Have you looked into getting published? I think you are worth listening to. Your posts are challenging. You offer a great sense of relevance in your references and of course promote wonderfully obsucre bands and artists:)
Happy Monday
