I found the letter in the mailbox today
And I said thank you for your thoughts but I'm done
I said that I would never build this up right here
And he said that's why I can't work with you son
I can't let this go I'm on my way
And you can only hold my diamond ring
I go crawling back to the city I love
Cause it's already taken everything
I'm going to Coney Island , to have myself a dog
And reminisce why I still hate it here
It's all these people with their cotton candy eyes
It's so sweet now put the train in gear
Chorus
The ground is swallowing my options for release
And if it rains they might just disappear
I counted twenty seven birds up there today
I'm thinking that's why I still love it here
I'm thinking that's why I still love it here
