About this track

The song digs into the kind of damage that doesn’t come from what was done to you, but from what was left undone… a parent who was never fully alive in the room, a ghost who kept showing up in comparison charts and expectations. Gray Sheep is about learning how to walk with that weight. How I got good at things no child should have to learn… giving in, being the villain, matching a shadow, pretending I wasn’t shaped by it.

Lyrics

I got
Good at
Giving In
And being the bad guy

I got
Good at
Bleeding
With no wounds at all

I got
Good at
Seeing
The gray between

I got
Good at
Pushing
You away from me

And now it's too late
Wouldn't matter anyway
We weren't what you wanted
We were just in your way

Hey is it cold in your grave

When you died you left your
Gray Sheep on the horizon
When you died you left your
Gray Sheep on the horizon

I got
Good at
Being
Compared to you

I got
Good at
Lying
About it not being true

I got
Good at
Seeing
Myself as broken

I got
Good at
Being
Broken

And now it's too late
Doesn't matter anyway
The damage was done
When she saw your face

Hey is it cold in your grave

I was born just a Gray Sheep
On the horizon

The horizon

I was born just a Gray Sheep
On the horizon

The horizon
