grey - original song | Orla Gartland

a song about having no grey area.

lyrics & (chords)...

verse:
(Bm to A, A to G, Bm to A, G to D)
Sometimes, I wish that I could feel numb
I wish that I was someone who could just brush it off

Sometimes, my head is like a party
A fight is starting in the corner of a crowded room

pre:
(G, Bm, A, D/F#m)
and I feel it bubbling to the surface
I can't look it's making me nervous, how?
I don't mean to be so erratic
Maybe i'm melodramatic now

chorus:
(G, D, A --)
'Cause it's always so good or so bad
Never in the middle
I either feel it all at once
Or feel so little

There's no middle

verse:
(Bm to A, A to G, Bm to A, G to D)
Blue & green, are so familiar, they're all I seem to know
I see red & I hate it
Never thought that I'd be here, but hey, now I'm begging for grey

(pre)
(chorus)

mid8:
(G, D, A, F#m)
You're telling me to simmer down
Just tell me how to dull it out x2

(chorus)

"I either feel it all at once
Or feel so little"
Me in a nutshell!

[EmmaJaneMusiq]

This one chokes me up the second the synth comes in - these songs really got me through some of my darkest times.

My friend showed me this song, at the time I had a completely one-sided crush on him and the lyrics spoke so much to how I was feeling about the situation, and so I fell in love with this song. He passed away very tragically two weeks ago, and the lyrics have taken on a whole new meaning to me that I will never hear this song the same again. I miss him every day, and as of right now I still break down every time I hear this song.

I still love it, it's a beautiful piece of art that is only in my life because of my friend who I loved, and I'll always cherish the memories of driving around with him listening to this. Thank you Orla, this song is a gift beyond words.

You know when you hear a new song for the first time ever, and you just know you're going to listen to it a million times till it's irrevocably seared into your brain? That! That x1000!

[ixchel]

[CatherineMulvenna]

Having a borderline personality disorder diagnosis, it feels like this song speaks directly to me. Orla you're so very talented and I'm so very grateful.

[beAbubblyblonde]

your music should be HEARD by everyone in the entire world. just saying.

[Tosutoo]

it's not orlas sole singing skills that got me, even if they're amazing, but her passion that's distinct in her singing and the energy you can see. this is what I look for. I'm bored of all so perfect emotionless singing. orla is fucking refreshing

[cheesecakelasagna]

Damn.. why you gotta do this to me, Problematic is still stuck in my brain and now this..

[jazminedebeauchamp]

your originals never cease to amaze me omg i've been listening to you for like 6 years and dang i still love you so much

[oOUnluckyPennyOo]

You ever have those songs that feel super duper relatable, and help you feel connected to the human experience? This is one of those for me. Thanks Orla, you're a gem. <3

[micaela_c]

You sing so passionately I love it Orla!

[BeFlatMajor]

world's best pre-chorus right there.

[MarieFerrieux]
