Settle New York, Settle Lyrics

New York was a blur her face is flushed.
As if a bitter cold Brooklyn shook it out as if it touched.
She says, "I used to sleep without a stir
but these nights I toss and turn
while everything I love is caught between."
Caught between.
So settle New York
Wipe the frost off of Brooklyn
Till it's lost on you.
Settle into.
New York was a blur the streets ran wild
with the lights and sounds of our youth on trial.
The air is crisp with smoke as we tread the streets alone
slipping in and out of bars as we battle our way home.
So settle New York
Wipe the frost off of Brooklyn
Till it's lost on you.
I'm settling into something I should do.
Come on ma'am please see me off.
I depart at quarter to you've only lost
a couple of minutes of the time we've left.
"Chase that lush with a drink" she says,
"I have got bigger problems than this.
I once had faith that I could find home
but I'm d*** sure this cities swallowed me whole."
