NYC Lyrics by Knox

How To Lose A Girl in 7 Songs

2023

[Verse 1]
Woke up and she's mad at me
'Cause I'm overdramatic, see, I lose my touch
My temper gets the best of me
Like I'm my own worst enemy, I just can't flush
All of these thoughts out of my head
I need a place where I can go and forget
All of the things I've done and I've said
I need an escape 'cause I just can't take it, oh-oh, ooh

[Chorus]
I should fly to L.A. 
Stay for just a few days, work on myself, yeah
Or maybe go to Washington
Drink and just get lost again and worsen my health
'Cause I'm a monumental mess
And all the tightness in my chest
Is just a sign I should reset
Yeah, I just need to find a place to rewind
Oh, I should fly to New York tonight

[Verse 2]
But looking back at all the conversations
It's taking a whole lot to say this
And it hurts that it's your heart that I'm breaking
But I can't make it through if I'm fakin'
And I knew that I told you that I might need help
So, how am I supposed to love you when I don't love myself?

[Verse 3]
Yeah, the city is colder, maybe I'll just get older
And forget what I told ya
Turn a gateway into a stay and pray
That someone will be there to hold ya
Then, you can call them yours
And they'll be better than I was before

[Chorus]
Yeah, I should fly to L.A. 
Stay for just a few days, work on myself, yeah
Or maybe go to Washington
Drink and just get lost again and worsen my health
'Cause I'm a monumental mess
And all the tightness in my chest
Is just a sign I should reset
Yeah, I just need to find a place to rewind
Oh, I should fly to New York tonight
Oh, I should fly to New York tonight

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
So, I've been thinking that I should fly to L.A. 
Stay for just a few days, work on myself, yeah
Or maybe go to Washington
Drink and just get lost again and worsen my health
'Cause I'm a monumental mess
And all the tightness in my chest
Is just a sign I should reset
Yeah, I just need to find a place to rewind
Oh, I should fly to New York tonight

[Outro]
I should fly, oh
I should fly to New York, oh, I should fly to New York tonight
I should fly to New York
Yeah, I should fly to New York tonight
