Gartland, Orla - Grey Lyrics






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

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

'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
There's no middle

Blue and green, are so familiar, they're all I seem to know
I see red and I hate it
Never thought that I'd be here, but hey, now I'm begging for grey

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

'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
There's no middle

You're telling me to simmer down
Just tell me how to dull it out
You're telling me to simmer down
Just tell me how to dull it out

'Cause it's never in the middle
I either feel it all at once
Or feel so little
There's no middle
There's no middle

You're telling me to simmer down
Just tell me how to dull it out
You're telling me to simmer down
Just tell me how to dull it out
Just tell me how to dull it out
Just tell me how to dull it out

    "I either feel it all at once or feel so little... there's no middle"

    I almost jumped out of my skin when I heard this, and my focus was literally RIPPED from my homework to my computer screen. I have never heard a song lyric that has described my life so perfectly. That was beautiful, and I have fallen in love with this song... thank you

  75. M.... G....

    Great song, perfectly performed :-) ... X Manzi (from Vienna)

  76. A.... A....

    You're accumulating a nice collection of bangers now but this one's still my favourite. You were an exceptional performer of covers as an adolescent and you've grown into a very fine songwriter in your own right. It's been joyous and a tad surreal watching you grow up on Youtube. Keep up the good work.

  77. E.... R....

    you're like a perfect mix bewteen Lorde and halsey

  78. e.... l....

    snazzee jumper m8

  79. G.... ....

    so much talent

  81. D.... P....

    this is amazing !! i found you from a cover of liability and im so glad I did i think you're amazing :)

  82. B.... ....

    I've never had a song describe my feelings so completely. I have Borderline AND Bipolar 1.. and it's a struggle every day to not feel one extreme or the other. I want to get "There's no middle" or "Begging for grey" tattooed, and I was wondering if you could write them both down and send me a picture, because I totally want them in your handwriting. PLEASEEEEEE. <3

  83. S.... ....

    how good is that stuff? Next Florence & the Machine confirmed

  84. L.... C....

    Wow, I love this song!

  85. a.... ....

    holy cow I swear you make some of the best original music out there

  86. G.... R....

    Need a studio version of this. Yas!

  87. k.... ....
