A letter in gray

The past is here

Present in memories

Hoping that this here and now

Will be present in future

 

We're sewn of experiences

We're grown of black and white

'Til the day when fabric get to rip

By the reaper almighty

 

It's easier to leave

But who am I to deceive

It's harder to stay

But sometimes life is gray

 

Prophecies of a boundless man

With a voice that echoes perpetually and

With a raw and visceral skin and

With a mad and incorruptible sanity

 

No limits!

No boundaries

No plays of puppets of flesh

No superb joy of sadistic men

No whispers

No ghostly voices of men, of me

No!

 

Talk to you as I talk to me

Express me to you as I talk to me

Here and now with the sum

Of all experiences,

Of all memories,

Of black and white,

Of gray,

Of me,

I'll stay,

Here and now,

I'll stay...
