Grey Street
oh look at how she listens

and as the loneliness inside her
and it breaks her heart
she fears the crazy man outside her door
she said please there's a crazy man
oh and the loneliness inside her
and it breaks her heart
sitting still as stone
people walking by me and i wonder yeah
what if God shuffled by
but it's rushing around
lying on the roof counting
so much space to believe
and i worried if i looked away she'd be gone
wandering through wood

she just goes stumbling through her memories
staring out onto grey street
how did i come to this
i dreamed myself a million times around the world
but i can't get out of this place
and she'd do anything to fill it in
but all the colors mix together
to grey
she prays to God most every night
and although she knows he doesn't listen
theres still a hope in her he might
oh but they fall on deaf ears
am i supposed to take it on myself
to get out of this place
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
and all the colors mix together
to grey
says take what you can from your dreams
make them as real as anything
oh it'll take the work out of the courage
who's creeping outside my door
i live on the corner of grey street
and the end of the world
and she'd do anything to fill it in
and though its red blood bleeding from her now
it felt like cold blue ice in her heart

using colors bold and bright
but all the colors mix together
to grey
and it breaks her heart

Two Step (intro)
oh i'm playing now
oh take your hand off of me now
came upon the strangest sight one evening
while walking on my own
shadows fall from the moon above
and there were four men
just like angels stood before me
and music poured from each of them
as no one else had ever seen
i don't need
i don't need you no more
i just need to be left alone
alone alone
Two Step (intro)
oh but i know that God
tables turned again
make the best while you can think
don't trust me
is the only way to the greater haven
but trust in all these things we have
but still we hide the lying eyes
and don't you think if
god above well watching us now
you beg to think just a little more
then it seems we'll leave God alone
you my friend i would
still facing across your right
each others arms now
and no one else
when we were so young
looking onward thinking
will we look back on those days
and remember when we were just good friends
but lovers ready to walk they seem
is always
will fade in the end but all we can is try
and we leave while we're playing
and you smile
i felt a thousand feet tall again as
always
i will
always
trust yourself
and what you are is
oh when i'm going to beg
when i'm going to beg you girl yeah
i'm not going to be down on my knees
no no no
i'm going to have the battle to your head love
What You Are (outro)
i'll say it
stand alone
hold your hand on your heart
with love and faith
and one of the ways there
and you get there
i will rise up
i will fall
i build you but God said hello
and may kill me love
may go right to give up on

and wandered all of us
so idly go along our only ways
but one day while this

up from the bottom like the hell

when you dig my grave
would you make it shallow please
so i could feel the rain
