about

Welcome to hell's memory lane from the days of yore to the days of sore.

lyrics

Im not looking for a Nü New York but this is where I find myself in
Im not tryin' to change those city lights but those street signs led me to this

You came looking for the new New York
You were dying to see how it is
You bought all the right things to fit In the right place
but It's like those empty parking lots now that are highrise buildings

Kiss the wind it got me off track
that city, it betrays me

You want to hang with those Brooklyn kids you wanna hang till as late as it gets
you pretend that you're working for tips but everyone knows that daddy pays the bills for your for cheap-thrill

not looking for a Nü New York but this is where I find myself in
Now you're tired of those city lights now but those street signs
Still …led you to this

Kiss the wind it’s got me off track
I turn around and give it my back
My city it betrayed me it said I wouldn’t last
yeah my city it betrayed me and I don’t hear you
then I saw you for you


But now that dream is over
It all rings true

now I'm not looking for a New Nu York
but this is where I find myself again & again
I’m not trying to light the way for those to see
But every failed school light forgets that way
—
I'm not looking for that Nu New York
i’m weary where I find myself here
but for all those weary eyes now tell you
to sign it away.

cause that dreams over
it all rings true
yeah that dreams over
it rings true
now this dreams over
It's truein
