[Verse] I woke up wondering who I was gonna be today What sort of emotional mess, it's anybody's say Though my heart isn't pure, it has a gentle way An unpainted portrait, an unmolded piece of clay Never tried to be the one who never stayed But now with all of this, from the path I have strayed A cruel mockery, a twisted game I've played For so long.....now the only way forward is to go away [Chorus] I'm feeling another shade of blue Feeling the world closing me out But when I think of what I've done to you The fault's with me, there's no doubt Another shade of blue.... Another shade of blue. [Verse] I sometimes wonder if I'm the one they hate That the faces all reflect a misleading state When I can't even seem to define my fate I keep trying, but I think it's already too late When the sun doesn't bring in any light When I seem truly awake only at night The lies and fears grow stronger, I can't fight Forward or back, no escape from my plight [Chorus] I'm feeling another shade of blue Feeling the world closing me out But when I think of what I've done to you The fault's with me, there's no doubt Another shade of blue.... Another shade of blue. [Bridge] I didn't mean to be in this situation A figment of my dark imagination The real me, not this interpretation To be able to give an explanation [Chorus] I'm feeling another shade of blue Feeling the world closing me out But when I think of what I've done to you The fault's with me, there's no doubt Another shade of blue.... Another shade of blue.
