8/26/2001 alternate lyrics
Oh, look at how she listens
there's not a word of what she thinks
and then she stumbles through her memories
staring out onto the street
she thinks, hey
how did I come to this
I dreamed myself a million times around the world
but I can't get out of this place
As if the rocks hole up inside
then she feels the weight ride down
when all the colors mix together
to grey
on Grey Street
[???]
play ring around the rosie in the park
thought ashes to ashes meant [?] fun
now she knows it's play [???]
she thinks, hey
how have I come to this
I meant myself [?] full moon when I was young
but I can't get out of this place
As if the fog rolled up inside her
and she sees her fate from the line
and though it's red blood bleeding from her now
it felt like cold blue ice in her heart
and all the colors mix together
to grey
it breaks her heart
Oh there's a [?] man from outside her door
he says, take what you can from your dreams
and make them real as anything
you know it takes the work out of the courage
she says, please
there's a crazy man creeping outside my door
I live on the corner of Grey Street
and the end of the world
As if the fog rolled up inside her
and she sees the flaming light
and though it's red blood bleeding from her now
it feels like cold blue ice in her heart
though it's lonely down in the soul
won't leave her red say light
but all the colors mix together
to grey
Grey Street
on Grey Street
on Grey Street
Though it's all rolled inside her
and she feels the flame daylight
and though it's red blood bleeding from her now
it felt like cold blue ice in her heart
oh it's lonely down in the heart now
won't see her way tonight
oh I [???] you won't worry
won't see her, daylight
when all the colors mix together
to grey
on Grey Street
on Grey Street
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
