Grey Street - Live at Alpine Valley Music Theatre, Elkhorn, WI 07.26.15

Oh, look at how she listens
But she says nothing of what she thinks
She just goes stumbling through her memory
Staring out onto Grey Street
But she thinks, "Hey, how did I come to this?
I dream myself a million times around the world
But I can't get out of this place"

Oh, there's an emptiness inside her
And she'd do anything to fill it in
But all the colors mix together to grey
Breaks her heart

But how she wishes it was different
So she prays to God most every night
Though she knows well he doesn't listen
There's a foolish hope in her he might
She stop praying
But all of my prayers they fall on deaf ears
"Am I supposed to take it on myself
To get out of this place?"

There's loneliness 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
It breaks her heart
To grey, yeah, yeah
Thank you very, very much
Good night
