Anna Bergendahl - I Hate New York

I hate New York today
I hate this town
I came for uncomplicated love
I got high rent and a broken heart
Down the street in a small café
He's hurting just as much as I do
He might call and he might not
Bottom line, I hate New York today

Yeah, for today
I hate Manhattan
I hate these streets, and the Brooklyn Bridge, too
I'm hating Harlem's
Sweet gospel choirs
I hate the moonlight on a crystal night

I hate this feeling of
Me not being who you think I am
And how this city tricks your mind
Into thinking everything will be fine

Yeah, for today
I hate Manhattan
I hate these streets, and the Brooklyn Bridge, too
I'm hating Harlem's
Sweet gospel choirs
I hate the moonlight on a crystal night

This city broke so many
Your lucky penny slips away
It beats on you
Rolls right over you
Robs you blind
But you stay anyway

I hate New York today
Yeah, I hate this town
I thought I was the queen of the world
Turns out I'm just another girl

Yeah, for today
I hate Manhattan
I hate these streets, and the Brooklyn Bridge, too
I'm hating Harlem's
Sweet gospel choirs
I hate the moonlight on a crystal night

Yeah, for today
I hate Manhattan
Dark cafes, and Broadway's bright lights
I'm hating Harlem's
Sweet gospel choirs
I hate the moonlight on a crystal night

This city broke so many
Your lucky penny slips away
It beats on you
Rolls right over you
Robs you blind
But you stay

This city broke so many
Your lucky penny slips away
It cheats on you
Makes a fool out of you
Knocks you down
But you stay

This city broke so many
Your lucky penny slips away
It beats on you
Rolls right over you
Robs you blind
But you stay

This city broke so many
Your lucky penny slips away
It cheats on you
Makes a fool out of you
Knocks you down
But you stay
