Monochrome – The Parallel

I used to see vibrancy in all the colours
Changing seasons, now I dread every dead leaf
Wilting away like the ambition I once had
Deciduous, relinquish my intent, battered by indifference
Existential questions, no answers
Languishing in self reflection
Grey matter leads me astray to polar feelings

Leave me by the wayside
Trapped in a monochromatic dream
It’s never ending
Leave me by the wayside
Trapped in a monochromatic dream
Left in a trance

If I could change one thing
I’d try to comprehend
The kind of people we’ve become

Fleeting passion
Dormant hearts
Ceasing perseverance
That we feel we’ve lost from the start

Time left me behind in a noxious gaze
What’s the allure of nothingness?
A chimera in monochrome, I exist in the grey
As the flesh tone leaves my body, I am colourless
We are recollections from a hand full of moments

Now I dread every dead leaf on the ground
Wither away, wither, wither
Now I dread every dead leaf on the ground
Grey matter leads me to polar feelings

Leave me by the wayside
Trapped in a monochromatic dream
It’s never ending
Leave me by the wayside
Trapped in a monochromatic dream
Left in a trance

Time left me behind
Time left me behind
Time left me behind
Time left me behind
