Tell me why it always rains
when you're thinking of the past
sky darkens stillness reigns
and you cant seem to make it pa**
Fools like us never seem
to find the things we need
always pacing endlessly
on a stark deserted beach
cruel shades of blue
night harbors images
of danger coming near
mysteriously
its the peace that we most fear
in cruel shades of blue
lullabies by an ocean side
and there they are again
making plans for the end of time
and our terrible descents
Oh night of dawning man
like the clockwork of the sea
bring tears and memories
of really being free
in Cruel Shades of Blue
