I wanted to write a pop song with lyrics that were like an abstract expressionist painting -- pure color and shape and form.

SPLIT THE GRAY

Split the gray
Split the gray
Split the gray
With the blue
Divide it all by red
I don't think any gray day's permanent
I don't think blue skies are the point of it
We can't see all the light that's 'round our head
There ain't no color without light and color's heaven sent
Split the gray
Split the gray
Split the gray
With the blue
Divide it all by red
I've been out looking for the brightest blue
I caught a glimpse but it was only you
Didn't know that gray was blue until this day
All those things you put away are put away to stay
Split the gray
Split the gray
Split the gray
With the blue
Divide it all by red
