New York's upset that you're leavin
Battered and bruised, but you're breathin
You shouldn't care for its reasons
As long as you've still got that feelin
She's more prepared for the future
If I closed my eyes then I'd lose her
Her note read she's no time for losers
Cuz she's more prepared for the future
Skylines change
Strip 'em down, torn away
Each building macramé
Starts to fray
For what it's worth
I will feel just the same
Like every passing day
Will remain the same
Out at the shore and the foam
You tell me to follow and roam
But I can't abandon my home
Out in the mist and the gloam
The scaffolding shakes like an addict
Begging for more once you've had it
Memories of you fill this attic
And I'll never feel good without it
Skylines change
Strip 'em down, torn away
Each building macramé
Starts to fray
For what it's worth
I will feel just the same
Like every passing day
Will remain the same
Forget me quick
Forget me quick now
