9/20/2000 alternate lyrics
Oh, look at how she listens
she says nothing of what she thinks
she just wanders through her memories
staring out onto Grey Street
but she thinks, hey
how did I come to this
I dreamt myself a million times around the world
but I can't get out of this place
As if a hole in her heart wore
and she feels the draining life
when the colors mix together
to grey
and it breaks her heart
Some [?] 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
As if a hole in her heart bore
and she feels the draining life
and although it's red blood pours now from her
it felt like cold blue ice on the inside
when the colors mix together
to grey
and it breaks her heart
Oh, the [?] outside in the hall
says, take what you can from your dreams
make them as real as anything
it'd take the work out of the courage
but she screamed, please
oh there's a crazy man, he's creeping outside my door
I live on the corner of Grey Street
and the end of the world
As if a hole in her heart is bore
and she feels her draining life
and though it's red blood bleeds now from her
it felt like cold blue ice on the inside
when she walk out in the morning
screamed the rainbow's so bright
when all the colors mix together
to grey
and it breaks her heart
it breaks her heart
it breaks her heart
As if a hole in her heart bore
and she feels the draining light
and though it's red blood bleeds now from her
it felt like cold blue ice from the inside
and awful lovely lie on her harbor
but she holds on [?] and night
oh Father give me oh the courage
want to leave here, yeah, say light
when all the colors mix together
to grey
and it breaks her heart
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
