Something must’ve gone wrong in my brain
Got your chemicals all in my veins
Feeling all the highs, feeling all the pain
(?)
Now I’m seeing red, not thinking straight
Blurring all the lines, you …
[Intro]
Something about that makes me wanna dance
Something about that makes me wanna move
Something about that makes me wanna get down and get closer to you
Something about that makes me wanna …
[Verse 1]
Don’t throw my name ’round here like that
You could get us in some trouble
Talking that way and
Monday you got me that’s a fact
You could get me in some trouble
Talking …

[Verse 1]
Where’d the love go?
Where’s the passion, oh?
Why does it feel like
I’m better off alone?
Say it’s my fault
That we’re broken
[Pre-Chorus]
You know the truth babe
What did I do babe?
I wanted you …
Stronger than reason
Stronger than lies
The only truth I know
Is the look in your eyes
The look in your eyes
Just like a car crash
Just like a knife
My favorite weapon
Is the look in …
Hey Mr. Grey, that’s what the children say1
Life used to be so hard, get off my yard2
They’re so young, they’re so dumb
They don’t understand3
Kids don’t follow, kids don’t lead
Kids go hand in hand4
Hey Mr. Blue, the brokenhearted fool5
You wonder why the one you loved would lie6
Hey Mr. Green, your grace is rarely seen
so filled with rage and then you disengage7
Get so up, get so down
Get mixed up inside8
Kiss of death, kiss of love
Kiss it all goodbye9
Hey Mr. White, it’s time to stop the fight10
The world has changed while you turned out the lights11
But Old Mr. Grey will slowly fade away
Old Mr. Grey, Hey Mr. Grey
Find a life that’s right for you12
