Manhattan is Drowning

from We Were Astronauts by Eleanor and the Atlantic

/

lyrics

And this planet was just spinning
Even faster than this morning when I was
Drowning in Manhattan
Under covers in your apartment and I saw
A building high as heaven
And a park bench with some carved in hearts I saw
Lovers they were waiting
For a taxi to bring them home
I saw children they were playing
They were astronauts on a rocket ship and they were
Sailing to some planet
That is spinning slower than us right now
