New York - Ex:Re

I was drunk

«New York, New York»

I saw a small white rabbit climbing down the Empire State

I must have been hallucinating

I am seeing things I’m missing

They told me Stella from across the street is dead

Painted fake bricks on the front because house sales are slow

And Stella was kind to me even though

She didn’t know the fantasies I made around her

The pictures he drew

Two broken legs, open-toed shoes

Shark fishing in the pavements

Shark fishing in the pavements

I’m hallucinating

I’m seeing things I’m missing

I went back to your street

I saw my friends in love, have children

I felt empty and alone there

Talking other people’s good things

Pining for my own share

Still, I raged through, wine-wasted, shit-faced, solo, so what?

So long, I had no real plans

It wasn’t work, no, it wasn’t holiday

It was just time and space

Unpaid intoxication, images I didn’t need

Man, I really want to see you
