A New Place Out There

Honey I drink up to the cork Cancel my plans and take off to New York Space lost to ruins, memories lost in the past When gramma would pull me out of the edge of the sidewalk fast When you found out men would sacrifice a whole country to get themselves some money When I found out that he abused her and had a side honey It’s a sad story, always a bad story This city is ruined forever Honey, I drink up to the cork Hey, cancel your plans and take me to New York Maybe we’ll find a new place out there You said “honey, it’s the same everywhere” Women lost to men, men lost to themselves When ‘gay is okay’ has become a new slogan for the front shelves Trans folk being found dead, the next day men pull out a party I said “gramma, take me to the country side and let’s forget about everybody” It’s a sad story, always a bad story This city is ruined forever Honey, I drink up to the cork Hey, cancel your plans and take me to New York Maybe we’ll find a new place out there You said “honey, it’s the same everywhere” (Neon city lights High on a wild ride)
