Verse 1:
We stumble and stare at the carnival lights
That lit up New York City,
From the rooftop in Brooklyn
That was covered in bad graffiti.
And then I let a thousand splinters
Pierce right through my spoiled liver,
Whatever that was left of it.
Intro: , , , , , ,
Verse 2:
Cuz I cursed my lonely memory
With picture-perfect imagery.
Maybe I m not dying
I m just living in decaying cities,
But I m still healthy, I m still fine,
-
I ll be spending all my time readin the obituaries.
Chorus:
But I will this up,
I ing know it.
I will this up,
I ing know it.
I will this up,
I ing know it.
I will this up,
I ing know it.

Bridge:
Cause I was the shadow of the waxwing slain
I felt the false azure from windowpanes
I am just freaking out, yeah I ll be fine.
Chorus:
But I will this up,
I ing know it.
I will this up,
I ing know it.
I will this up,
I ing know it.
I will this up,
I ing know it.
