grey

I always find my thoughts and moods in songs. A couple of days...maybe weeks ago this song was being played over and over. I always tend to find songs that fit my mood and play them over and over till it changes. It's funny to me how someone I've never known can make me feel like they are singing directly to me. Make me feel as if they are sometimes inside my mind and helping me spill out my thoughts. I wonder if artists out there realize how much of an impact they really do have?

Oh look at how she listens 

She says nothing of what she thinks 

She just goes stumbling through her memories 

Staring out onto Grey St. 

And she thinks...hey 

How did I come to this 

I dreamed myself thousand times around the world 

But I can't get out of this place 

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 

Oh how she wishes it was different 

She prays to God most every night 

And though she swears He doesn't listen 

There's still a hope in her He might 

She says I pray 

But they fall on deaf ears 

Am I supposed to take it on myself 

To get out of this place 

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 feels like cold blue ice in her heart 

When 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 real as anything 

It will take the work out of the courage 

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 

Oh there's an emptiness insider 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...Oh and it breaks her heart 

To grey, Yeah...
