I want to feel something that isn't romantic I want words to say that don't romanticize New York City But the sunsets there take my breath away A decade down I love them more every day I'm all alone remembering What a warm body felt like in bed In the morning Giving head Trembling and wet Brooklyn transplant Manhattans where my heart's at Love the one you're with until you're dead Sadness is a sickness That can be cured with prescriptions I think I'm better off alone Than in a heartbreak highway prison I want to be kissed and not start to panic I don't want to run away or turn my mind to pornography But a woman already got the best of me And she got the worst of me too, eventually I'm all alone remembering What a warm body felt like in bed In the morning Giving head Trembling and wet Brooklyn transplant Manhattan's where my heart's at Love the one you're with until you're dead Sadness is a sickness That can be cured with prescriptions I'm better off alone Than in a heartbreak highway prison Maybe if I fell in love I could find other stories to tell But when I think about falling in love I don't wanna be under its spell It's something I've already done It shook me up down to my core It's why I keep falling apart It's something I don't wanna do anymore Brooklyn transplant Manhattan's where my heart's at Love the one you're with until you're dead Sadness is a sickness That can be cured with prescriptions I think I'm better off alone Than in a heartbreak highway prison Sadness is a sickness That can be cured with prescriptions
