Manhattan Howl

Wandering the midnight blue on the Upper East Side
The pavement feels unsteady as I try to find my way
The noise inside my head is pressing on my brain
Streetlight cracks the fog, the veil of shadow fades

And I’m searching for a signpost to mute the creeping fear
But here we go, yeah here we go, the city wants to steer
Here we go, yeah here we go, the city wants to steer
Here we go, yeah here we go, the city wants to steer

If they mess with me again, I'll settle out the score
Put ‘em into next week, with no note from before

If they mess with me again, I'll settle out the score
Put ‘em into next week ..

On Lexington down by the church my beat starts to slow down
A neon flash jogs me back, what it is with this town?
The scene that went down in the park spun out of my control
Was he trying to help me out, or out steal my soul
Was he trying to help me out, or out steal my soul
Was he trying to help me out, or out steal my soul

If they mess with me again, I'll settle out the score
Put ‘em into next week, with no note from before

If they mess with me again, I'll settle out the score
Put ‘em into next week ..
