Gave up God for lent this year, stopped going to the church
Learned to fight within myself the war beyond the words
Found a way to reconcile, forget my fears and learn
The inner price of peace from endless posturing and work

But here's the thing
I'm finding the truth I've always known
That it's a blink
You only get one shot always, go

I want different shades of green
Let the wilderness teach me something
Different shades of green
I want different shades of green
I want to imitate the mystery
Different shades, different shades of green

The spirit is unbroken, yeah, the potion's everywhere
And charting all the oceans hasn't hid me from it's stare
Classified as hopeless, now they pity me with care
But the rising tide that sunk my ship left it beyond repair

But here's the thing
I'm finding the truth I've always known
That it's a blink
You only get one shot always, go

I want different shades of green
Let the wilderness teach me something
Different shades of green
I want different shades of green
I want to imitate the mystery
Different shades, different shades of green

Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh

I want different shades of green
Let the wilderness teach me something
Different shades of green
I want different shades of green
I want to imitate the mystery
Different shades, different shades of green

Oh-woah
Oh-woah
Oh-woah
Oh-woah
Oh-woah
