New York
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
How long would you wait
And watch your world turn away
Another hour, another day
Staring into your own grave
And if I die before I get back to New York
I wont have anything to show
All my life I hesitate
And watch the world pass by
And it never seems to changes
And be free from this aching
Never breath will I make it?
What else can I say
I got this song inside a cage
I sit on fire I wear the pain
No one hears it in my brain
And if I die before I get back to New York
I wont have anything to share
And be free from this aching
Never breath will I make it?
All my life I hesitate
And watch the world pass by
It never seems to change
And if I die before get back to New York
I wont have anything to show
And be free from this aching
Never breath will I make it?
And be free from this aching
Never breath will I make it?
