  • a song about having no grey area.
    lyrics & (chords)...
    verse:
    (Bm to A, A to G, Bm to A, G to D)
    Sometimes, I wish that I could feel numb
    I wish that I was someone who could just brush it off
    Sometimes, my head is like a party
    A fight is starting in the corner of a crowded room
    pre:
    (G, Bm, A, D/F#m)
    and I feel it bubbling to the surface
    I can't look it's making me nervous, how?
    I don't mean to be so erratic
    Maybe i'm melodramatic now
    chorus:
    (G, D, A --)
    'Cause it's always so good or so bad
    Never in the middle
    I either feel it all at once
    Or feel so little
    There's no middle
    verse:
    (Bm to A, A to G, Bm to A, G to D)
    Blue & green, are so familiar, they're all I seem to know
    I see red & I hate it
    Never thought that I'd be here, but hey, now I'm begging for grey
    (pre)
    (chorus)
    mid8:
    (G, D, A, F#m)
    You're telling me to simmer down
    Just tell me how to dull it out x2
    (chorus)

    My friend showed me this song, at the time I had a completely one-sided crush on him and the lyrics spoke so much to how I was feeling about the situation, and so I fell in love with this song. He passed away very tragically two weeks ago, and the lyrics have taken on a whole new meaning to me that I will never hear this song the same again. I miss him every day, and as of right now I still break down every time I hear this song.
    I still love it, it's a beautiful piece of art that is only in my life because of my friend who I loved, and I'll always cherish the memories of driving around with him listening to this. Thank you Orla, this song is a gift beyond words.

    It's 1:30 in the morning and I'm teetering on the edge of a panic attack because I can't stop thinking about how much of a freak I am because it's like I have two modes. 1:robotic,stern,cold,seemingly emotionless,too honest,socially inept
    2: Super loud,annoying,overly emotional,theatrical,over dramatic and childish,really outgoing
    The second is like a failed attempt at a mask,I try to act like "normal" people do but then I end up being a little bit too dramatic or theatrical and it tends to drive people away
    I can't find a balance inbetween the two,this song is exactly how I feel. I've been trying to find a way to put it into words and I finally did. Thank you Orla for writing such beautiful and meaningful songs,You may not know it but they really truly help people ❤
