Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sky is grey
And the sand is grey
And the ocean is grey
I feel right at home
In this stunning monochrome
Alone in my way
I smoke, and I drink, and
Every time I blink, I
Have a tiny dream
But as bad as I am
I'm proud of the fact that I'm
Worse than I seem
[Verse 2]
What kind of paradise am I looking for?
I've got everything I want, still I want more
Maybe some tiny, shiny thing will
Wash up on the shore
[Verse 3]
You walk through my walls
Like a ghost on TV
You penetrate me
And my little pink heart
Is on its little brown raft
Floating out to sea
[Verse 4]
And what can I say but I'm wired this way?
And you're wired to me
And what can I do but wallow in you unintentionally?
[Verse 5]
What kind of paradise am I looking for?
I've got everything I want and still I want more
Maybe some tiny, shiny key will
Wash up on the shore
[Verse 6]
And regretfully, guess I've got three
Simple things to say
Why me? Why this now? Why this way?
With overtones ringin', undertows pullin' away
Under a sky that is grey
On sand that is grey
By an ocean that's grey
[Verse 7]
And what kind of paradise am I looking for?
I've got everything I want and still I want more
Maybe some tiny, shiny key will
Wash up on the shore
