[length: 05:07]
[00:19.50]Oh, look at how she listens
[00:24.22]She says nothing of what she thinks
[00:28.73]She just goes stumbling through her memories
[00:33.68]Staring out on to Grey Street
[00:38.67]She thinks, “Hey, how did I come to this?
[00:47.45]I dream myself a thousand times around the world
[00:52.89]But I can’t get out of this place”
[00:58.03]There’s an emptiness inside her
[01:02.77]And she’d do anything to fill it in
[01:07.56]But all the colors mix together
[01:12.25]To grey
[01:16.83]And it breaks her heart
[01:22.15]How she wishes it was different
[01:26.64]She prays to God most every night
[01:31.40]And though she swears He doesn’t listen
[01:36.16]There’s still a hope in her He might
[01:41.27]She says, “I pray
[01:45.71]Oh, but they fall on deaf ears
[01:50.48]Am I supposed to take it on myself
[01:55.75]To get out of this place?”
[02:00.41]Oh, there’s an loneliness inside her
[02:05.43]And she’d do anything to fill it in
[02:10.31]And though it’s red blood bleeding from her now
[02:15.17]It feels like cold blue ice in her heart
[02:19.99]When all the colors mix together
[02:24.89]To grey
[02:29.69]And it breaks her heart
[02:34.93]There’s a stranger, speaks outside her door
[02:39.14]Says, “Take what you can from your dreams
[02:43.98]Make them as real as anything
[02:48.25]Oh, it’ll take the work out of the courage”
[02:53.74]But she says
[02:54.60]”Please, there’s a crazy man that’s creeping outside my door
[03:03.59]I live on the corner of Grey Street
[03:08.82]And the end of the world”
[03:13.38]Oh, there’s an emptiness inside her
[03:18.25]And she’d do anything to fill it in
[03:23.12]And though it’s red blood bleeding from her now
[03:27.61]It’s more like cold blue ice in her heart
[03:32.32]She feels like kicking out all the windows
[03:37.29]And setting fire to this life
[03:40.77]She could change everything about her
[03:46.75]Using colors bold and bright
[03:51.45]But all the colors mix together
[03:56.21]To grey
[04:01.05]And it breaks her heart
[04:05.50]Oh, it breaks her heart
[04:10.68]To grey
[04:16.36]Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, now
[04:29.68]Ah, ah, ah, ooh, ooh
[04:39.74]It breaks her heart
[04:43.29]Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah
[04:52.02]La-da-da
[04:53.06]La-da-da
[04:54.27]La-da-da, la-da-da, la-da-da
[04:56.71]La-da-da
[04:58.46]Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
