Grey Songtext
von Mia Stegner

You had me at "my favorite color′s grey"
I bet your process was the same
Had to be a contrarian too
Had to find a choice unique to you
And no one's favorite color′s grey
So you made it yours, took in the stray

To some, it couldn't be any duller
But you've come to see that it′s the prettiest goddamn color

One more broken pinky promise
And my top is gonna blow
So scoff and just remind me minds change
I refuse to watch you go
I′ll dig my heels in, hold on tight
And grit my teeth, my knuckles white
'Til nails break off inside my doubts
I′ll never get the pieces out


I hold my tongue
It burns my lungs
When the truth can't move, so it makes new grooves
In my weathered heart, so I wake with a start
And I have to text
Begging what comes next

I don′t want more
Just like, before
But it hurts to wait when I told you so
And I gotta know! Will you let me know?
Will you let me? No, but I need to know

Don't cut me loose, let′s make a truce
What did I do wrong?
C'mon string me harder along

One more broken pinky promise
And my top is gonna blow
So scoff and just remind me minds change
I refuse to watch you go
I'll dig my heels in, hold on tight
And grit my teeth, my knuckles white
′Til nails break off inside your doubts
You′ll never get the pieces out


If I'm insane
I′ll blame my brain
And curse my past
I'll make this last
And in a way
It′s just revenge
That I refuse
To let this end

You lied to me
Can we agree
Our lives were on track to intertwine
This loss is not just mine

You even spelled it with an E
Before you went and changed the key

One more broken pinky promise
And my top is gonna blow
So scoff and just remind me minds change
I refuse to watch you go
I'll dig my heels in, hold on tight
And grit my teeth, my knuckles white
′Til nails break off inside our doubts
We'll never get the pieces out
