L Train

I don't know how it starts
But I know just how it ends
It's with me and I'm leaving again
I know it all seems crazy, It all just began
But I'm terrified of falling

I don't need this city
And I don't need you

I want the L Train back to Brooklyn
But there's all of this construction
The city, like the seasons, like you are getting cold
And the conductor like my father
He ain't showing up for work
How can everybody leave
But me

There's boxes in the kitchen
And I've got laundry to fold
Look at me packing my shit again
I'd rather walk down to the Hudson
Take off all my clothes
Look at me, we can both let go

I don't need this city
And I don't need you

I want the L Train back to Brooklyn
But there's all of this construction
The city, like the seasons, like you are getting cold
And the conductor like my father
He ain't showing up for work
How can everybody leave
Why does everybody leave
But me

This moment and this mirror
It took a lifetime to care
I almost wanna call you
Almost cut my hair
But I am going back to bed
For tomorrow and some dreams
Cause I'm not good with scissors
And you're not good with me

I want the L Train back to Brooklyn
But there's all of this construction
The city, like the seasons, like you are getting cold
And the conductor like my father
He ain't showing up for work
How can everybody leave
Why does everybody leave
But me
