The Blank Face of New York Video (MV)

It's been a lifetime in the making
Spotlights never sleep
The search stays on
And runs you ragged
Unless you criminals believe
Bright lights hail attraction
Youth burn out on their own
There three rivers stand for trade
But here they stand for home
She asked for me to go and see her off
But I couldn't leave my car
Don't remember leaving
But she watched me leave her
It might've been
Easier to hear her say
I'm just not good enough
Than to watch her leave here
I had to watch her leave here
Now New York watches blankly
Slide onto the railing
Heels beyond the balcony
She's looking for that crescent moon
Maybe thinking of me too
Settle into chaos
She's got to be famous for everyone
She needs acclaim from strangers
Didn't come enough from me
Must've blacked out but I'm still intact
Don't remember where I drove
But I still have that feeling
I won't forget that feeling
I tried my best at the terminal
Whatever and ever amen
Didn't make her stay here
I couldn't watch her stay here
Now New York watches blankly
Must've blacked out but I'm still intact
Don't remember where I drove
But I still have that feeling
I won't forget that feeling
You know I tried my best
Not to let her go
But I had to see it through
Couldn't make her stay here
I couldn't watch her stay here
Now New York watches blankly
New York watches blankly
If it won't go the way you want
I'll be here at home
When you come home
If it won't go the way you want
I'll be here at home
When you come home
So when you coming home
When you coming home
