Ive Seen Gray Lyrics

Words and Music by Mike Stand

I've been dreaming of a world
A world of black and white
A land of simple answers
Fair is fair and right is right
It's true a world like this will come someday
But for now things are not that way

We live in world of confusion
Isn't that the way it is today?
Unclear issues, unanswered questions
Surround us everyday
Life's mysteries come crashing in
They make our mothers cry and the young man sing

Chorus:
I've seen grey - when a pure right or wrong
Was not clearly seen
I've seen grey

Is it grey when we can't find answers?
Is it grey when it's not wrong or right?
And does that give us the go ahead to do anything we like?
Is grey mis-used as a weak excuse?
Can answers be found if we seek and look?

Chorus:
Still, I've seen grey
When answers I needed
Seemed way beyond me
I've seen grey - when I couldn't explain
Inconsistencies
I've seen grey

Bridge:
And I try so hard
To understand this life
I want to know what's wrong
I want to know what's right
Where can I draw the line?

Well I may not have all the answers
And this world is greyer than I like
But the hope that lives inside of me
Gives this grey a litlle light
It's easy to get angry when lifes unfair
But the challenge is to know a faithful God is there

Chorus:
I've seen grey - when the dark of night was more like shade
I've seen grey - when a cloudly haze covered the light of day
I've seen grey
