8/5/2000 alternate lyrics

Oh, just look at how she listens
she's saying not a word of what she thinks
she just listens and abuses
staring out onto the street
well, she thinks, hey
how did I come to this
I'm supposed to take it all to myself
to get out of this place

Oh and the loneliness in her heart fall
and then more like red blue light
oh and the colors mix together
to grey
and it breaks her heart

Oh [?] 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 says, I pray
oh, but they fall on deaf ears
I'm supposed to take this on myself
to get out of this place

And then the ropes in her heart fall
the yellow days she lived her life
oh, and the rain did down red green over
like an autumn, oh steal her life
oh down and then the colors mix together
to grey
oh, and it breaks her heart

Oh, God is outside her door
says, take what you can from your dreams
make them as real as anything
it'll take the work out of the courage
she said, please
oh, there's a crazy man creeping outside my door
I live on the corner of Grey Street
and the end of the world

Oh then the holding down the heart long
to think the blue sky painted black
oh and all the blue veins pump inside her
bring them outside both red and stacked
oh man, while she walk out in the morning
won't see her, say light
when all the colors mix together
to grey
and breaks her heart
oh, it break her heart
and it breaks her heart

Only lone down wait is over
she feels faint in the yellow side
oh every red bone breaks inside her
remembers colorful flower light
don't rain not the same for you don't want warning
won't blueness let her ride
now in each corner of her loving
won't leave her, yeah say light
but all the colors mix together
to grey
and it breaks her heart
like rain coming down
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
