Time flies for the unchained
January's gone by in flames
So now, lines cut your face
And days run like razor blades
You live and die for the full ride as a clot of chemicals
Like the ones that fuse to love you so, I curse their longevity
Because they just won’t tire.
You be free and smile
I’ll be down in New York
Whistling for a cab you rang back in ‘09
Back when you said
Dance me through manhattan
How could you forget?
Waiting, I’m waiting for the day that you cease to roam
You accept your faults and that you’re coming home
But, my cold blueberry nose
I got frostbitten bitter bones
My cold soul is exposed...
You live and die for your whole life as a clot of chemicals
And I got ones that fuse to miss you so, curse their longevity
Because they just won’t tire at all
So be free and smile
I’ll be down in New York
Whistling for a cab you rang back in ‘09
Back when you said
Dance me through manhattan
How could you forget?
You be free and smile
I’ll be down in New York
Whistling for a cab you rang back in ‘09
Back when you said
Dance me through this city
How could you forget?
