Oh, look at how she listens
she's saying nothing of what she thinks
she just stumbles through her memories
staring out onto Grey Street
but she thinks, hey
how did I come to this
I dreamed myself a million times around the world
but I can't climb out of this place
As if rocks spilled her heart so
she no longer saw in black and white
when all the colors mix together
to grey
it breaks her heart
She hears the [?] of indifference
she prays to God most every night
although she swears he doesn't listen
there's hope in her that he just might
she said, I pray
oh, but my prayers fall on deaf ears
am I supposed to take it on myself
to get out of this place
And as if rocks in her heart fall
and she sees only in black and white
although its red blood bleeding from her
it feels like cold blue ice down inside
when all the colors mix together
to grey
it breaks her heart
Oh, there's a voice coming from out in the hall
says, take what you can from your dreams
make them as real as anything
it'll take the work out of the courage
she says, please
there's a madman creeping outside my door
I live on the corner of Grey Street
and the end of the world
Oh, as if the rocks in her heart fall
and she sees only black and white
and though it's red blood bleeds now from her
it felt like cold blue ice run inside
and when she rolled out in the morning
see the colors so bright
when all the wonder mix together
to grey
and it breaks her heart
and it breaks her heart
it breaks her heart
Just like the rocks spill her heart now
and she sees only black and white
and though it's red blood bleeding from her
it felt like cold blue ice deep inside
love, the lonely down, lonely down inside love
won't [?] when it's dark
what have I noticed, in the courage
won't see her, red say light
when all the colors mix together
to grey
oh, and it breaks her heart
it breaks her heart
to grey, yeah

Grey Street
main lyrics
Oh, look at how she listens
she says nothing of what she thinks
she just goes stumbling through her memories
staring out onto Grey Street
she thinks, hey
how did I come to this?
I dreamed myself a thousand times around the world
but I can't get out of this place
There's an emptiness inside her
and she'd do anything to fill it in
but all the colors mix together
to grey
How she wishes it was different
she prays to God most every night
and though she swears it doesn't listen
there's still a hope in her he might
she says, I pray
oh, but they fall on deaf ears
am I supposed to take it on myself
to get out of this place?
Oh, there's a loneliness inside her
and she'd do anything to fill it in
and though it's red blood bleeding from her now
it feels like cold blue ice in her heart
when all the colors mix together
to grey
and it breaks her heart
There's a stranger speaks outside her door
says, take what you can from your dreams
make them as real as anything
oh, it'd take the workd out of the courage
but she says, please, there's a crazy man that's creeping outside my door
I live on the corner of Grey Street
and the end of the world
Oh, there's an emptiness inside her
and she'd do anything to fill it in
and though it's red blood bleeding from her now
it's more like cold blue ice in her heart
she feels like kicking out all the windows
and setting fire to this life
she could change everything about her
using colors bold and bright
but all the colors mix together
to grey
and it breaks her heart
oh, it breaks her heart
to grey, yeah
it breaks her heart, yeah
rub-a-dub, rub-a-dub, rub-a-dub, rub-a-dub, rub-a-dub-dub, rub-a-dub, yeah
rub-a-dub, rub-a-dub-dub
