Lyrics

Welcome to a hard truth
Say goodbye to uncertainty
Open up a little bit
Pass money to this booth

Because every day is never tomorrow
So open a book, tune the TV
Calm your mind
Undo biased sorrow

Hello, here's your ticket
A train passed hope and terror
Tracks laid on defiance and denial
Next stop, the grey area

Boarding passes don't exist here
Are you new to this way of thinking
Don't presume judgement
Imagine water that's dark, clear

Expect an unlucky horse-shoe
Because you're not in control
Addiction to adrenaline now
Eat bowls of emotion stew

Hello, here's your ticket
A train passed hope and terror
Tracks laid on defiance and denial
Next stop, the grey area

Goodbye, snap at me
A train passed neglect and chaos
Tracks laid on trauma and caress
Next stop, the grey area

Tearing a hair in half
Be happy but actually sad
Be sad but actually happy
Tearing a second in half

Be waning but waxing
Be waxing but waning
Moving the moon
Moving the sun

Hello, here's your ticket
A train passed hope and terror
Tracks laid on defiance and denial
Next stop, the grey area

Goodbye, snap at me
A train passed neglect and chaos
Tracks laid on trauma and caress
Next stop, the grey area
