8/2/2000 alternate lyrics
Oh, look at how she listens
she's saying nothing of what she thinks
she feels all of these abuses
she stares blank out onto Grey Street
but she thinks, hey
how did I come to this
I dreamt a million miles away from here
but I can't climb out of the way
All the hopes in her heart fall
and the brightness moon lay down
and the colors mix together
to grey
and it break her heart
Oh, [?] difference
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 my prayer fall on deaf ears
I'm supposed to take it on myself
to get out of this place
Oh, and then the rope in her heart tied
like the black of night gave in
oh, speckled sky with all those star down
then the blue I feel alright
oh, but all the colors mix together
to grey
and it breaks her heart
Oh, the crazy man outside her door
says, take what you can from your dreams
make them real as anything
it takes 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
She feels the rope in her heart fall
she feels colors that fade along
oh, and the lovely red skin [?]
the trickle tear that runs down [?] side
oh man, he roll out in the morning
and she feel love, say light
but all the colors mix together
to grey
and it breaks her heart
it break her heart
and it breaks her heart
Oh, then the rope end up tighter
and the water like sky blew down
oh, remembers raining up the water
changing brightness with [?] sun
oh, there's no notion world it's over
but she feel most grey side of life
walk out, this woman did not worry
won't leave her, yeah say light
but all the colors mix together
to grey

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
