Lyrics
Bowery
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.
We were standing
At forsythe and bowery
Flowers and painted forehead
Trying to forget
You can't tell if the ceilings rising
Or if the floor's falling out.
I remember sunrise without sleep
Godlike and cowering
Taller stacks of stone
Is all we'll have to show
At the time I wasn't with you
By that time I didn't care
The fall is so much faster
Than you and I could ever climb
