I can't walk down these streets and see all of these sights Without you on my mind Remembering all the days, the New York cliches Those late downtown nights You're everywhere I go, I can't help but notice I'm here to know you if I never call you I lie awake in a city that never sleeps Tryna forget about you and me But it's hard that I can't see Lie awake in a city of broken dreams A city of how we used to be Wish I could see it differently Oh, but it's covered in you and me, yeah I guess I won't be getting any sleep Till I leave, I can't focus like I should My vision's obscured by fucking memory lane Suppose the world does me good But I'd go if I could Cause it don't feel the same To lie awake in a city that never sleeps Tryna forget about you and me But it's hard that I can't see Lie awake in a city of broken dreams A city of how we used to be Wish I could see it differently Oh, but it's covered in you and me, yeah I guess I won't be getting any sleep Till I leave, till I leave you Darkness falls under all of the lies Got that empire state playing tricks on my mind You and your ghosts follow me through the night It haunts me inside I just can't close my eyes Yeah, yeah Lie awake in a city of broken dreams A city of how we used to be Wish I could see it differently Oh, but it's covered in you and me, yeah I guess I won't be getting any sleep
