12/4/2000 alternate lyrics
Oh look at how she listens
but she says nothing of what she thinks
she just stumbles through her memories
staring out on to grey street
but 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
It's like rocks in her heart fall
and she feels the weight of life
and the colors mix together
to grey
and it breaks her heart
Hears the pain drive in her life
she prays to God most every night
although she swears he doesn't listen
still hope in her he just might
she says I pray
oh but they fall on deaf ears
I'm supposed to take this all on myself
to climb out of this place
As if hole in her heart falls
and she feels the weight of time
although the red blood flows right through her
it feels like cold blue ice in her heart
when all the colors mix together
to grey
and it breaks her heart
She feels the voices come from outside her door
take what you can from your dreams
make them as real as anything
it'll take the work out of the courage
she says please
there's a crazy man that's creepin outside my door
I live on the corner of grey street
at the end of the world
Oh as if a rock in her heart falls
and she sees both black and white
and though it's red blood bleeding from her
it feels like cold blue ice down inside
and the raindrops come a-railing
oh see it, see light
when all the colors mix together
to grey
and it breaks her heart
and it breaks her heart
it breaks her heart
Just like a hope in her heart falls
and she sees both black and white
and although it's red blood bleeds now from her
it felt like cold blue ice down inside
and now along my dawn in her old age
broke out in love, endless love
what about worries comes she nowhere
well leave it yeah said I lied
when all the colors mix together
to grey
and it breaks her heart
it breaks her heart
to grey, yeah
and I fucked up, yeah, yeah, 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
