Brooklyn

so why, why why?
say yeah
say yeah
it's probalby not wise to love me
hard —
mostly my thoughts are ugly
oh, enough enough talking about how i feel inside
do you feel alright?
when i'm gone you still feel alright?
you know, heavy clouds got silver linings
but the light inside you makes it feel so bright
— she's a baby she's delicate
all of her petals have metal tips
she won't let you touch her she's celebate
she want angles only
she's heavens sent
she don't belive in god like she used to
she don't call or cry or pray no more
she take longer flights than most birds —-
but when she touch down she can't stay no more
i just keep saying
why did you leave?
i just keep asking her
why not believe?
she always says
it's just not for me
the truth still stand but what — is what leaves
godd-mn, i see what you mean
hold on to nothing 'cause everything leaves
everything leaves
i guess on the ground that's all you can see
i know you're running
you got nothing to — forgot it
hope you be what you find
just sitt still
you'll be healed
in time
i don't mind
oh, i see you reaching for him
searching through weeds for —
you shouldn't be someone else
— you
in the palm of your hands
i feel —
'cause i know you're running
you got nothing to — forgot it
hope you be what you find
just sitt still
keeping still
i'm still out there somewhere
oh, out there somewhere
someone who loves
someone who —
someone who —
you shouldn't be no one else
you should love
you should love
yourself
don't you ever wanna go back to brooklyn?
when the sun shone bright and things didn't hurt
don't you ever wanna go back to brooklyn?
maybe rewind time and make things work?
those big green bright bright eyes stairing down at me
whoah, what a memory huh?
what a memory
