In twilight
Where rain and gray aren’t innocent
None of us are
Shadow life
The light is dim and paranoid
This is all we have
Now we leave this place
Between the light and the dark there’s a comfortable grey
From all I’ve known I’m leaving today
Don’t make me turn away
When the Light comes (from far away)
I’m closing my eyes in shadow
When Darkness takes me (so far away)
I look for the Light and find that you can’t have both
I look around
See through myself and to the ground
For I am empty
What I have
It’s all I’ve got and is the cause of pain within me
Now we leave this place
Between the light and the dark there’s a comfortable grey
From all I’ve known I’ll have to part ways
I won’t go through this, the divorce is too great
I will not let go of all I’ve never wanted
Must I turn away my only hope to see the day?

Behind the Song:"Both 'Part One' and 'Endless Day' were written about a book by C.S. Lewis called The Great Divorce. The main point in the book is that if you choose Heaven you can’t take any part of Hell with you, and vice versa. Part One is about one of the characters who chooses Hell, while Endless Day is about a character chooses Heaven." - Wavorly
