My Ex I - Kyiv - New York

Even, the city of dreams
It has its unique vibe
But I feel like I don't fit in here
Despite how deep I may hide it
Even, the aisle of these streets
I feel unspeakable sadness
Having New York in my dreams
I can't explain what's happening and why
It feels like a chain that's holding my soul
It's reeling no matter where I go
My gut just keeps saying this where I belong
But there is a plane in my dreams where
Give me up
I wanna take this flight and leave this city alone
I wanna leave behind my past and shake myself off
Travel across the sky on the plane
Give me up
Give me up

In my dream Kyiv should have been just like New York
With skyscrapers on every street, crazy rhythm
With the bright lights and music that never turned off
But instead I feel less and less of my freedom
It's a subject you feel and don't get me wrong
But my favorite colors ain't blue and yellow
Don't believe I'm defined by the place I was born
These are feudal duties I don't wanna pay
It feels like a cage that's holding my soul
With good bars no matter where I go
I'm locked in a culture where I don't belong
A stranger dreaming of plain code
Give me up
I wanna take this flight and leave this city alone
I wanna leave behind my past and shake myself off
I wanna close my eyes and feel the air in my lungs
Catching the sun's walking from Manhattan to Bronx
I wanna take this flight on the plane
Give me up
Give me up

It feels like a chain that's holding my soul
It's reeling no matter where I go
I'm locked in a culture where I don't belong
The stranger dreaming of plain code
Give me up
I wanna take this flight and leave this city alone
I wanna leave behind my past and shake myself off
I wanna close my eyes and feel the air in my lungs
Catching the sun's walking from Manhattan to Bronx
Let me take this flight on the plane
Give me up and never return
