it happened again, but it's not like before when the Son of Sam could have been outside your door now Brooklyn hipster girls pose for a 'Gram all of their self-worth wrapped into the palm of their hand primping on 46th Street trying to look fine a cop shooed them away, and said "ladies, this is not the time" the night the lights went black on Broadway people stuck in lifts and packed on subways the MTA's shit, this could have happened any day heroes in the streets directing cars drinking by the glow of your phone in all of the West Side bars all the Broadway babies took their shows outside this is NYC, what a time to be alive the night the lights went black on Broadway and J-Lo... she was waiting for tonight

when the world has lost its sanity we're not coming back, not from this with forrest fires and plastic seas we're not coming back, not from this they know where you are it's a clown parade of those that lead we're not coming back, not from this trade your privacy for cyber hearts we're not coming back, not from this they know where you are blatantly lie, climate deny, destroying lives for a buck times running out, hear people shout, "when will they finally give a fuck?" when the world has lost its sanity we're not coming back, not from this

Luv U Boo 02:29
on the day that i met you i carved our initials into wood from a gallows a crude heart surrounds it be now forgotten to me throw all your ire in the sea be now forgotten to me your total denial oh how the years pass you give up your wishes walking on eggshells spit on at Christmas be now forgotten to me throw all your ire in the sea be now forgotten to me and fuck off you liar
