Dave Matthews Band and Dave Matthews - Grey Street lyrics

rate me

Oh look at how she listens

She says nothing of what she thinks

She just goes stumbling through her memories

Staring out onto 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

And though it's red blood bleeding from her now,

Felt like cold blue ice in her heart

When all the colors mix together to grey

And it breaks her heart

You know, she wishes it was different

And she prays to God most every night

Although she's quite sure he doesn't listen

There's a tiny hope in her "HE" might

She says, “I pray

Oh, but my prayers they all 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 colors bold and bright

But all the colors mix together to grey

And it breaks her heart

It breaks her heart

To grey...Yeaaaaaaaaah..Yeeaaaah
