grey street

Dave Matthews Band

Oh look at how she listens
She says nothing of what she thinks
She just goes stumbling through her memories
Staring out on to Grey Street.

She thinks, "Hey, how did I come to this?"
I dream myself a millions times around the world
But I can't get out of this place.

There's an emptiness inside her
And she'll 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
But 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
It'd take the work out of 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".

There's an emptiness inside her
And she'll do anything to fill it in
And though it's red blood bleeding from her now
It's feels 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
It breaks her heart
To Grey
