lyrics

It's all shady and gray
Like a grainy noir frame
Won't you come rescue me
From this grim mentality
Grey and red look good together
Where is my mind?

Do you remember me?
Said the skid marks on my knee
I suppose we had a good run
To which it said spare me the puns
Grey and red look really good together
Where's my mind?

Oh where's my mind
Got left behind.

Wait a minute, what was that?
People living under my hat
Don't seem to have any etiquette
Had to shave my head just to get respect
Wasn't the best decision for December
Where's my mind?

The words are all jumbled up again
It all means the same my friend
(swonk eh ti evah t'now eh sekohc eh
tibar seog ereht ho ,ytilear ot kcab pans)
oh no, that was a different song.

Won't you come back again?
I've lost my way old chum
Can't you retrace your steps?
I ran out of bread crumbs
Why must you grasp so tight to monochrome
There used to be color sometime ago

But gray and red go well together.

about

Ali Suhail Karachi, Pakistan

Hi, I'm Ali. I make music in a room in a house in Karachi in Pakistan. In fact, that's most of what I do. I've been making music since I was a teenager, learning from The Beatles, The Foo Fighters, Death Cab For Cutie, Freelance Whales, Pomplamoose etc. These albums that I've written are an amalgamation of my experiences and perception of the world and life. I hope they make people happy. ... more
