i love you but you are bringing me down

New York, you're perfect don't, please, don't change a thing
Your mild billionaire mayor's now convinced he's a king
And so the boring collect, I mean all disrespect
In the neighborhood bars I'd once dreamt I would drink

New York, I love you but you're freaking me out

There's a ton of the twist but we're fresh out of shout
Like a death in the hall that you hear through your wall

New York, I love you but you're freaking me out
New York, I love you but you're bringing me down
New York, I love you but you're bringing me down

Like a death of the heart. Jesus, where do I start?
But you're still the one pool where I'd happily drown

when i was walking to a market to get some groceries,
a radio station happened to play this song.
since then it's stuck on my ears.
