New York Lullaby

from As if Words could Heal the Wounds by Ben Grace

lyrics

City that never sleeps
Wall street excess and eighty hour weeks
You bring the best of us to our knees

City of blinding lights
Rock bottom lows and dizzying highs
You make it hard for us to call you home

Brooklyn of broken dreams
Inspiring my melodies
You bring the best of us to our knees

City that's terrifying
And always gentrifying
You make it hard for us to call you home

City that never sleeps,
Tell me when do you dream
