Lyrics

[Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] Why's it never light on my lawn? Why does it rain and never say, "Good day" to the newborn? On the big screen, they showed us a sun But not as bright in life as the real one It's never quite the same as the real one [Chorus] And tell me, grey seal How does it feel to be so wise? To see through eyes that only see what's real Tell me, grey seal [Verse 2] I never learned why meteors were formed I only farmed in schools that were so worn and torn If anyone can cry, then so can I I read books and draw life from the eye All my life is drawings from the eye [Chorus] And tell me, grey seal How does it feel to be so wise? To see through eyes that only see what's real Tell me, grey seal [Verse 3] Your mission bells were wrought by ancient men The roots were formed by twisted roots Your roots were twisted then I was reborn before all life could die The phoenix bird will leave this world to fly If the phoenix bird can fly, then so can I [Chorus] And tell me, grey seal How does it feel to be so wise? To see through eyes that only see what's real Tell me, grey seal [Instrumental Outro]
