well I look outside
and I look around
wonder how much longer
this can go on
trapped in a shelter
from the world beyond
the world beyond

if I dig deeper
will it be explained
if I cut harder
will it stop the pain
let me out of my cell
and breathe again
let me breathe again

‘cause the sky hasn’t been clear
for the longest time
the sky hasn’t been clear
for the longest time

now the only colour
is in my veins
if I let them open
will I feel again
time to surrender
to the endless grey
the endless grey

‘cause the sky hasn’t been clear
for the longest time
the sky hasn’t been clear
for the longest time

if I dig deeper
will it be explained
if I cut harder
will it stop the pain
time to surrender
to the endless grey
the endless grey

‘cause the sky hasn’t been clear for the longest time
(is this the end of the world we held so dear?)
the sky hasn’t been clear for the longest time
(will the sun ever reappear?)
yes he sky hasn’t been clear for the longest time
(it’s been gray for a thousand years)
