Shades
Oliver Heldens & Shaun Frank feat. Delaney Jane Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Light a smoke so I can breathe
It's too dark, it's too loud in the city
If I had a god, I would say he was wrong
Got these scars, but I think they're pretty
So I say hey!
Been high since yesterday
It's hard to find a love through every shade of grey
So tired of the same
Never seems to change
It's hard to find a love through every shade of grey
It's hard to find a love through every shade of grey
It's hard to find a love through every shade of grey
Hey!
Been high since yesterday
You know it kills the pain
It's hard to find a love through every shade of grey
So tired of the same
Never seems to change
It's hard to find a love through every shade of grey
It's hard to find a love through every shade of grey
It's hard to find a love through every shade of grey
Hey!
Been high since yesterday
You know it kills the pain
It's hard to find a love through every shade of grey
So tired of the same
Never seems to change
It's hard to find a love through every shade of grey
Hey!
Been high since yesterday
It's hard to find a love through every shade, every shade
Hey!
Been high since yesterday
It's hard to find a love through every shade, every shade of grey (hey, hey, hey)
The lyrics of the song Shades of Grey by Oliver Heldens is about someone who is struggling with their emotions and trying to cope up with their life in a city that's too loud and chaotic. The singer says that if there was a God, he would say he was wrong because the city is too harsh on him. The person is also battling with scars but still thinks they are pretty. This indicates that the person has accepted their past and are trying to move on with their life.
The chorus of the song emphasizes the struggle the person is facing in finding love amidst the chaos of life. The lyrics say that it's hard to find love when everything is in shades of grey, and the person is tired of the same old routine that never changes. The only escape seems to be getting high, which dulls the pain. However, in the end, the person still finds it hard to find love. The song's message is that love is difficult to find amidst life's chaos, but one should never give up trying.
