New York
L.E.X.A.R.T. Lyrics

It's quiet now and what it brings is everything
The tranquil surroundings offer a sense of completeness and fulfillment

Comes calling back a brilliant night
The memories of a wonderful night return to mind

I'm still awake
Despite the late hour, the singer is not asleep

I looked ahead
The artist gazes towards the future

I'm sure I saw you there
The artist is convinced they caught sight of someone they know

You don't need me to tell you now that nothing can compare
It is unnecessary for the singer to state the obvious - there's nothing quite like this place

You might've laughed if I told you
If the singer had shared their thoughts earlier, the listener may have found them amusing

You might have hidden your frown
The listener may have tried to mask their displeasure if they had heard the artist's thoughts

You might've succeeded in changing me
The listener may have had the power to alter the artist's perspective if they had shared their own

I might've been turned around
The artist may have been swayed by the listener's point of view

It's easier to leave than to be left behind
Departing is painless compared to being abandoned

Leaving was never my proud
The artist is not proud of leaving

Leaving New York never easy
Leaving the city is always difficult

I saw the light fading out
As the singer left, the vibrant energy of the city diminished before their eyes

Now life is sweet and what it brings
The present is enjoyable and full of promise

I tried to take the loneliness, it wears me out
Despite trying to take on loneliness, it continues to exhaust the artist

It lies in wait
Loneliness is always present, waiting for the artist to let their guard down

And on a loss still in my eyes, shatter a necklace across your thigh
Despite experiencing a loss, the singer is willing to let go of something valuable

I might've lived my life in a dream
In the past, the singer's existence may have felt like a dream

But I swear this is real
The artist assures us that their current situation is not a fantasy

Memory fuses, and shatters like glass
Memories can be both fragile and unbreakable simultaneously

Mercurial future forget the past
The future is uncertain and unpredictable, so it's best to leave the past behind

But it's you, it's what I feel
Despite everything else, the singer's feelings towards the listener have remained constant

You find it in your heart, it's pulling me apart
Something deep inside the listener is causing the artist's emotions to fray

I told you forever, I love you it's forever
The singer has professed their love for the listener and promises it will last forever

You never
We don't know what the listener never did, leaving it up to interpretation
