Grey Street - Live at Wrigley Field, Chicago, IL - September 2010

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 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

And it breaks her heart
But how she wishes it was different
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 says, "I pray
Oh, but now I pray as 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 felt like cold blue ice in her heart
She feels like kickin' out all the windows
And setting fire to this life
She would 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, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
