yesterday I woke up in a dream

filled with sorrow and painful memories

but I can't remember what it was I'd seen

that made me grab my pen and clue you in

for me there's no relief



chorus

that's why I'm living day to day in a sea of gray

drowning down the pain in a quart of grain

so that's why I have to say I'm sorry in this note I've wrote to you



everybody wants to live a life

full of purpose fulfilling what's required

but I doubt there's any hope I can maintain

the course I'm on is doomed

yet one choice looms

while the world just fades away



[chorus]

that's why I'm living day to day in a sea of gray

drowning down the pain in a quart of grain

so that's why I have to say I'm sorry in this note I've wrote to you



so point of finger pull the trigger say your last goodbye

this time tomorrow no more tears you'll have to cry

smooth the wrinkles on your forehead close your eyes

for those that loved me ease your troubles I'm at peace right now

don't blame yourself the things I go through I keep down

the only way for me to rectify this frown

I'm dead

I'm dead

I'm dead
