Grey Street - Live in Rio

Oh look at how she listens
She says nothing of what she thinks
Just goes stumbling through her memories
Staring out onto Grey Streets

And she thinks, "Hey
How did I come to this?
I dreamed 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 colours mix together
To grey, and it breaks her heart

Oh, how she wishes it was different
She prays to God most every nights
Though she's quite chummy, doesn't listen
There's still a hope in her He might

She says, "I pray
Oh but my prayers 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
Felt like cold blue ice in her heart
She feels like kicking out all the windows
And setting fire to this life

She would change everything about her
Using colours bold and bright
But all the colours mix together
To grey

And it breaks her heart
And it breaks her heart
To grey
Yeah
