lyrics

When I get bored, I Google flats in New York.
I know I can't afford to change my life,
But something has to change.

A studio in Long Island might be just what I need.
Maybe something by the water,
Something by the sea.

When I get scared, I have to stop myself
From selling all my shit, and running somewhere.
'Cause I know I can't just go, I have a life,
I can't fight or flight when I've got grass to mow.

Am I on the wrong Island?
Is there something wrong with me?
Well either way, with Street View
I can belong vicariously.

Yes, you can outrun yourself,
leave your baggage running laps
on carrousels in JFK.
You can fly three thousand miles,
but even in Manhattan
your shadow looks the same.

I'm only looking, I'll probably never get to Brooklyn.
I'll just amble around with these big ideas until I buckle.
