Grey
Embracing Shadows: Finding Hope in Nova Jones' 'Grey'
Lyrics
I feel so alone
I feel a sense of loneliness
I know I’m not the only one
Acknowledging that others share similar feelings
I feel like I’ve lost before I even begun
Experiencing a sense of defeat before starting
I know you feel it too
Acknowledging that the listener also understands the emotions
You can see my point of view
Expressing a desire for understanding from the listener
I Wish I could close my eyes and wake up brand new
Wishing for a fresh start and a new perspective
I know it’s ok to make mistakes, I’m human
Accepting the inevitability of making mistakes due to being human
I know when I make it through the day then I’ve won
Considering successfully navigating through the day as a victory
I’m seeing grey
Feeling emotionally neutral or indifferent
It won’t go away
Emphasizing the persistent nature of the emotional neutrality
But There’s color in the darkest of days
Finding positivity or brightness even in challenging situations
So I know it’s gonna be ok
Expressing confidence that everything will be okay
I’m seeing grey
Reiterating the ongoing emotional neutrality
It won’t go away
Highlighting the persistence of the neutral emotional state
But There’s color in the darkest of days
Finding positivity or brightness in difficult times
I know its gonna be ok
Expressing confidence in a positive outcome
I know I’m not alone
Affirming a sense of connection with others
I just gotta take my time
Acknowledging the need to be patient
Cos I know we all can feel this sometimes
Recognizing that everyone experiences similar emotions
I gotta figure out
Needing to understand and address personal challenges
How to mend the broken parts
Working on repairing emotional wounds
I gotta rebuild the happiness in my heart
Focusing on rebuilding happiness in the heart
I know it’s ok to make mistakes, I’m human
Accepting the fallibility of being human and making mistakes
I know when I make it through the day then I’ve won
Viewing successfully completing the day as a triumph
I’m seeing grey
Experiencing emotional neutrality
It won’t go away
Emphasizing the persistent nature of emotional neutrality
But There’s color in the darkest of days
Finding brightness or positivity even in dark times
So I know it’s gonna be ok
Expressing confidence in a positive resolution
I’m seeing grey
Continuing to experience emotional neutrality
It won’t go away
Highlighting the persistence of emotional neutrality
But There’s color in the darkest of days
Finding brightness or positivity in challenging moments
I know its gonna be ok
Expressing confidence in a positive outcome
