Alexander 23
The Neighborhood
[Verse 1]
Call me insane, but I thought I'd be good by now
Like hearing your name wouldn't bring me to tears somehow
So what did you do with the memories?
Tell me, was it that easy for you to forget me?
Like something you left in the lost and found
[Verse 2]
Call me unhinged, but sometimes I pass by your place
It's not my fault, some habits are hard to break
But biting my nails and drinking caffeine
Have nothing on you and the hold you had on me
But you've said your piece, you don't feel the same
[Chorus]
So, I'll find a new favorite corner storе
'Cause the one by minе still feels like yours
The restaurants are haunted
The street's a broken promise
And I think I'll break if I have to stay
So, I'll move and give all your things away
But I'll keep loving you more than I should
And you'll keep the neighborhood
[Verse 3]
I'm gonna miss the sun rising in your eyes (In your eyes)
Walking to Spring from a party on 99th (99th)
Now every step just brings me back
To your front door, we're trading flasks
So, now I avoid vodka and 2nd Ave
[Chorus]
So, I'll find a new favorite corner store
'Cause the one by mine still feels like yours
The restaurants are haunted
The street's a broken promise
And I think I'll break if I have to stay
So, I'll move and give all your things away
But I'll keep loving you more than I should
And you'll keep the neighborhood
[Post-Chorus]
Yeah, you'll keep the neighborhood
Yeah, you'll keep the neighborhood
[Bridge]
I'll leave your keys
With your mail in the doorway
Won't see any more of me in the morning
Swear that I'll be fine, yeah, I'll be good
But I'll keep loving you more than I should
[Chorus]
So, I'll find a new favorite corner store
'Cause the one by mine still feels like yours
The restaurants are haunted
The street's a broken promise
And I think I'll break if I have to stay
So, I'll move and give all your things away
But I'll keep loving you more than I should
And you'll keep the neighborhood
[Outro]
I'll leave your keys
With your mail in the doorway
Won't see any more of me in the morning (Ah, ah-ah-ah, ah-ahh)
Swear that I'll be fine, yeah, I'll be good
But I'll keep loving you more than I should
And you'll keep the neighborhood
