9/1/2000 alternate lyrics
Oh, look at how she listens
she's saying nothing of what she thinks
she just listens to her memories
staring out onto the dream
she thinks, hey
how did I come to this
I've dreamed a million miles around and around the world
but I can't get out of this place
And like the rocks in her heart fall
evidence she's breaking right
'cause the colors mix together
to grey
and it breaks her up
Oh, omnipotent indifference
she prays to God most every night
although she swears he doesn't listen
still hope in her that he just might
she says, I pray
oh, but they fall on deaf ears
I'm supposed to take it on myself
to get out of this place
And feels like rocks in her heart fall
evidence she rode the light in
and though red blood bleeds, oh, from her
it feels like cold blue ice in her veins
when all the colors mix together
to grey
and it breaks her heart
'Cause the voices come from outside her door
say, take what you can from your dreams
make them as real as smoke and mirrors
it'd take the work out of your courage
she says, please
someone crazy's creeping outside my door
I live on the corner of Grey Street
and the end of the world
Just like rocks in her heart fall
and she feels the weight of life
and although the red blood bleeds now from her
it feels like cold blue ice in her heart
though it's lonely down in down [...]
oh man, the colors mix together
to grey
and wake her up
to wake her up
it breaks her heart
Oh just like the rocks in her heart fall
and she feels the weight of life
and although it's red blood bleeding from her
it feels like cold blue ice in her veins
and, oh, it's lonely down in her gut now
oh don't leave you these remains
she walk out [?] when you want it
won't see her, yeah, say light
but all the colors mix together
to grey
and it breaks her heart
oh, 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
