Manhattan Tragedy Video (MV)

The pavement ain't no place to sleep
Another one in a million with somewhere better to be
All the places you want to see
Are packed into compartments and the spaces between
Now my foot's in the door
How 'bout letting me in?
Yeah we're already wet
So we might as well swim
In the end all you get is a fan
Of your Manhattan tragedy
A landmark in apathy
Now I've been sowing concrete seeds
Of artificial individuality
And I've marched up and down these streets
The avenues I pass through grant a moment's reprieve
From the static I inhabit
At a drastic degree
To imagine any ounce of originality
So you can have it
I wish I could hand you anything but
Manhattan tragedies
But they are what they have to be
A landmark in apathy
Can't you see what that means to me?
If you really need me maybe then you would understand
How can I believe you if you never concede to demands?
You think you hold the Goddamn world in your hands
You let go of it like it's nothing just to see where it lands
How can you tell me any of this went according to plan?
We've been bleeding out for hours now, you see
I'm doing all that I can
You keep my heartbeat in the palm of your hands
You've held it to you like you knew that it was all that I am
But if you really need me maybe then you would understand
(You'd understand)
How can I believe you if you never concede to demands?
You think you hold the f*cking world in your hands
You let go of it like it's nothing just to see where it lands
How can you tell me any of this went according to plan?
We've been bleeding out for hours now, you see
I'm doing all that I can
You keep my heartbeat in the palm of your hands
You've held on to it like you knew that I was just another
Manhattan tragedy
A landmark in apathy
Can't you see what that means to me?
The pavement's no place to sleep
