7/11/2000 alternate lyrics
Oh just look at how she listens
she's saying nothing of what she thinks
sits there just listening to her [?]
staring out onto Grey Street
she thinks, hey
how did I come to this?
I remember colors all blinding me
I wonder [?]
But then the wrongs in her heart fall
and she feels the wait in line
all the colors mix together
to grey
to wake her up
Oh [???]
she prays to God most every night
although she knows he doesn't listen
there's hope in her that he just might
she says, I pray but they do fall on deaf ears
am I supposed to take it all myself
to get out of this place?
And then you're hoping it's over
some shape you never write
[?] down see one screw up on
oh and hoping it turn out right
then the colors mix together
to gray
to wake her up
Oh voices come inside her [?]
make what you can from your dreams
make them as real as anything
it'll take the work out of the courage
she said, please
there's a crazy man creeping outside my door
I live on the corner of Grey Street
and the end of the world
And then the loneliness that she knows so well
holds onto her brows so right
oh she feels weight of walls fall on her
she hopes she might get out this light
then she walks out in the morning
and is filled up with the light
and the colors mix together
to grey
and wake her up
to break her out
to break her out of this
But oh lonely down in [?] over
when the loneliness [?] liar
oh remember happy little girl oh
that's what she wants, she found her long life
in the morning rained
down her offering won't love you no way [?]
she stands walking but no worry, won't leave her
and the colors mix together
to grey
to wake her up
to wake her up
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
