The Sky Is Painted Gray Today lyrics

On an unpaved weather-worn highway

You walk with a staff in your hand

In the distance you see a boat fighting

The waves by the coastland

You see that the boat is fighting

Weary and worn by the swell

Straying off course in the chaos

Feeble little shell

The clouds are swiftly sailing by

The ocean blares a battle cry

The sky is painted gray today

You find it so hard to think of

A friend in a state of dismay

When you cannot reach out and help them

To find a better way

But by looking a little bit closer

Now, I can see what is true

That the waves are the struggles of living

And the boat is you

The clouds are swiftly sailing by

The ocean blares a battle cry

The sky is painted gray today

The clouds are swiftly sailing by

The ocean blares a battle cry

The world is painted gray today
