Rockaway
Loved you so much more than this, said too much
Marveled at you for years, since we met years ago
Green eyes, mesmerized, her beautiful art she used to show
Bonfires in Rockaway, where you're from
Waters of Jamaica Bay, cool off by the shore
Breeze blows through you bangs, sneakers, baggy jeans and skateboards
Needed so much more than this
Wanted so much more
Why was I always hiding, scared of denial
From the trial and error of a word
Losing fraternity, never had liberty in the end
Fennel, thyme, and caraway, in the air
Subway shakes you back awake, on the way to the shore
Planning out the day of sneakers, baggy jeans, and skateboards
Why was I always hiding, scared of denial
From the trial and error of a word
Sitting on benches, scoping our enemies
Watch them rush down the pavement after school
Paid for my innocence, lost it with confidence
Lost confidence by hating this lovely world
But you never knew none of it, kept it inside me
For fear of thinking you'd think I'm absurd
Marveled at you for years, since we met years ago
Green eyes, mesmerized, her beautiful art she used to show
Bonfires in Rockaway, where you're from
Waters of Jamaica Bay, cool off by the shore
Breeze blows through you bangs, sneakers, baggy jeans and skateboards
Needed so much more than this
Wanted so much more
Why was I always hiding, scared of denial
From the trial and error of a word
Losing fraternity, never had liberty in the end
Fennel, thyme, and caraway, in the air
Subway shakes you back awake, on the way to the shore
Planning out the day of sneakers, baggy jeans, and skateboards
Why was I always hiding, scared of denial
From the trial and error of a word
Sitting on benches, scoping our enemies
Watch them rush down the pavement after school
Paid for my innocence, lost it with confidence
Lost confidence by hating this lovely world
But you never knew none of it, kept it inside me
For fear of thinking you'd think I'm absurd
