You were born inside of a raindrop I watched you falling to your death And the sun, well she could not save you She'd fallen down too, now the streets are wet
Body of water Toxic and timeless Atlantic ocean New York skyline I always get lost When I leave the village So I couldn't come meet you In Brooklyn last night
But I sing glory from my lowest And I will say peace to the people I meet While the world waits for an explosion That instant of life That wipes the slate clean
So don't be fooled No don't get lied to Love was always cruel
And don't act strange Don't be a stranger It happened to me, now it's happening to you
But if you take that train under water then we could talk it through
Well if I could tame All of my desires Wait out the weather that howls in my brain Because it seems That it's always changing The winds indecision The sorrowful rain
Yeah, I was a postcard I was a record I was a camera Until I went blind
And now I'm riding All over this island Looking for something To open my eyes
But I still sing glory from my high rise And I will say thanks if you're pouring my drinks While the world waits for an explosion That moment in time, when we'll be set free
So don't stay mad Just let some time pass And in the morning you'll wake feeling new
And if I don't come back I mean if I get side tracked It's only cause I wanted to
I'm keeping up with the moon on an all night avenue
