Cover art for Grey lyrics by Ani DiFranco

love, like you've had this ideal goal of a person who could make you happy, and once you get it, its not everything you wanted, its dull and monochrome. and the guy can see through that.. see through her, "walk through my walls"

this sounds like tough times in a relationship (or a breakup of a relationship) that started out well... but expectations werent upheld, everything became dull, the paradise she thought she wanted turned out to be different from the truth...

or something. pretty song. nice style :)
