Lyrics

Gray's my favorite color

Expressing a preference for a neutral and indeterminate state, symbolized by the color gray.

Black and white has never been my thing

Rejecting the simplicity of black and white perspectives; embracing complexity and ambiguity.

I'll take my drink lukewarm now

Preferring things to be moderate or indifferent rather than extreme, as indicated by lukewarm drinks.

Hot and cold is not the thing for me

Disliking extremes, seeking a balanced and moderate approach in preferences and experiences.


Absolutes are hidden

Suggesting that clear and definitive principles are concealed or not easily apparent.

I've buried my convictions

Acknowledging a tendency to suppress strong beliefs or values.


I cannot be blind no more

Desiring clarity and insight, expressing a need to overcome ignorance or indifference.

Numb to what I'm living for

Rejecting emotional numbness and seeking a deeper connection to life's purpose.

Help me stop this compromise that justifies these lies

Requesting assistance in ending compromising situations that support falsehoods.

I need Your passion in this life

Expressing a need for a strong and fervent purpose in life, possibly seeking spiritual guidance.


I don't want to impose

Avoiding imposing personal beliefs on others, indicating a desire for humility.

Who really needs to know what I believe

Questioning the necessity of sharing personal beliefs, perhaps due to fear of judgment or conflict.

Cause no one likes rockin' boats

Choosing not to disrupt the status quo or challenge established norms.

And who would care to see the way I see

Recognizing the indifference of others to one's unique perspective or worldview.


So give me the fire, yeah

Expressing a desire for passion and intensity in life, seeking divine inspiration or motivation.

God give me Your fire

Requesting spiritual empowerment and fervor, possibly from a higher power.

And raise this life higher

Asking for an elevation of life, seeking a higher purpose or meaning.
