[Verse 1]
I used to love the skyline, now it's all your face
Every corner, every street, I can't escape
Rooftops, neon lights, used to feel so high
Now I'm screaming at the city, but you don't reply
[Pre-Chorus]
Times Square flashing, but I feel alone
Every taxi passing just reminds me of home
I swore I'd never crumble, thought I was strong
But the city keeps playing your favorite song
[Chorus]
New York, you're a fucking heartbreak
Every street, every bar, every late-night mistake
I wanted us forever, now I want the sky
To swallow up the memories of you and I
New York, you smell like whiskey and lies
I can't escape the ghost in your eyes
I used to be alive here, now I just survive
New York, you're the reason I can't feel alive
[Verse 2]
Brooklyn bridge, midnight, you kissed me so fake
Laughing in the rain, now it's just a mistake
Every rooftop bar, every skyline view
Used to be ours, now it's just me and the blue
[Pre-Chorus]
I run past the subway, pretend I don't care
But your shadow's following everywhere
I thought I'd get over you, thought I could be free
But New York keeps whispering your name to me
[Chorus]
New York, you're a fucking heartbreak
Every street, every bar, every late-night mistake
I wanted us forever, now I want the sky
To swallow up the memories of you and I
New York, you smell like whiskey and lies
I can't escape the ghost in your eyes
I used to be alive here, now I just survive
New York, you're the reason I can't feel alive
[Bridge]
I hate you in Soho, I hate you in Queens
I hate every skyline in my bad dreams
I wanted forever, but you tore it apart
Now the city just mirrors my broken heart
[Chorus]
New York, you're a fucking heartbreak
Every street, every bar, every late-night mistake
I wanted us forever, now I want the sky
To swallow up the memories of you and I
New York, you smell like whiskey and lies
I can't escape the ghost in your eyes
I used to be alive here, now I just survive
New York, you're the reason I can't feel alive
