The Sky is Painted Gray Today

On an unpaved weather-worn highway
 Walk with a staff in your hand
 In the distance you see a boat fighting
 The waves by the coastline
 You see that the boat is fighting
 Weary and worn by the swell
 Straying off-course in the chaos
 Feeble little shell
 ♪
 The clouds are swiftly sailing by
 The ocean blares a battle cry
 The sky is painted gray today
 ♪
 You find it so hard to think of
 A friend in a state of dismay
 When you cannot reach out and help them
 To find a better way
 But by looking a little bit closer
 Now, I can see what is true
 That the waves are the struggles of living
 And the boat is you
 ♪
 The clouds are swiftly sailing by
 The ocean blares a battle cry
 The sky is painted gray today
 ♪
 The clouds are swiftly sailing by
 The ocean blares a battle cry
 The world is painted gray today
