lyrics

You surveyed the scene
Filled with dust and debris
But it made the grade
Your heart barely skipped a beat
You found symmetry
In that midtown manor
Kept your heart in your pocket
On that midtown street

They said you ruined poetry
(They rode your sensibility)
You said, "It's more than they ever did"

You wrote symphonies
Whispered songs across ribbon
Spent entire days
Painting portraits of concrete
You made your own way
Across that midtown midday
Breathed in the city
On that midtown street

They said...
