A Thousand Shades Lyrics

ft Jeff Beck

Sitting in yesterday, watching it slip away today
Isolation
Fading like photographs, reminding us nothing ever lasts
Desolation
I look up to the sky but the sun never shines
I'm waiting

There's a thousand different shades of darkness
Coloring our faith
The past is dead, the future's haunted
What happened to today
Today

Promises built to crash
Walking on dreams of broken glass
Hell's creation
Try to find my escape
Somewhere where I can hide away
Desperation
I look up to the sky but the sun never shines
I'm waiting (Yeah)

There's a thousand different shades of darkness
Coloring our faith
The past is dead, the future's haunted

What happened to today
Today

There's a thousand different shades of darkness
Coloring our faith
The past is dead, the future's haunted
What happened to today
Today

There's a thousand different shades of darkness
Coloring our faith
The past is dead, the future's haunted
What happened to today
Today

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I think this is about how the more things change, the more they stay the same in the sense of the gray shades of our past may be lost to the now even darker tones of our present & the wheels keep churning...the patterns as bleak now as they've ever been.

Also wanted to note, this song features guitar god; Jeff Beck
