Cover art for Pipe Dream lyrics by Project 86

"Downhill downtrodden left a slave New day on the verge to find the GRAY Floors swing and slope downhill to bring MIDDLE GROUNDS set on wavering TWO SIDES to flip and coax a brink" "Off to buy HALFWAY"

"I'm not willing to MEET IN THE MIDDLE End tragedy solve the riddle And dissipate IDEALS OF INDECISION"

"GRAY fades to late"

"What's right not BALANCED"

"You're tripped by intent to STRETCH Searches coerce a MESH But find no chance to clench against Facts still remain unbalanced"

"I'm no longer the same as the HALFWAY days"

"Cause that RELATIVE STANCE is inadequate"

"It's dark or it's light so decide and face Dark So decide and face Light So decide and face Dark So decide and face Light So decide"

It's about the writer's movement away from an old ideology of shades of gray, stretching and meshing beliefs to "meet in the middle". They realize that there aren't shades of gray. Just "dark and light" and thus learns that we must "decide and face" the consequences of our decision.
