lyrics

I don’t get your illicit affair with splitting the hair of the dog ‘til it’s bare
And I don’t believe in the meaning of fair, it seems so terribly easy to tear
And repair
Into your own definition
But compared
Mine’s pure devastation
‘Cause ‘X’ is the weapon for every herd, but balance
That’s the powerful word

I don’t know if either is worse, be blessed or be cursed where the chest is concerned
But I’ve heard of girls whose surgeries earned them the bruise of the battered, the broken, the burned
What a shame
She had such potential
Now who’s to blame
The mother or the Motrin
‘Cause ‘X’ is the cure-all for every herd, but balance
Baby, that’s the powerful word

I don’t care if you’re fiscally sore, if your clothes have been worn by so many before
If the money you hold’s from a high interest loan that you won’t pay in full ‘til your kids are adults
Those dimes
They shine by the dozen
But your smile
Is one in a million
‘Cause ‘X’ is the dollar for every herd, but balance
Baby, that’s the powerful word
Yeah

Composed of 6 members, Grey have a sound that has been compared to everything from Adele to Dresden Dolls. With layers foggy brass, voluptuous keys, alchemic rhythms, smoove bass, and smoky vocals, their music refracts thoughtful chaos. Their captivated audiences can’t help, but to be seduced. ... more
