"BROOKLYN LOOKIN BACK" ( video by Charlie Shelton)

www.youtube.com/watch?v=aToBqirVYcQ

lyrics

first belief: a taken risk wont sting like a want kept underneath
but misery was bitter, worse than anything ive seen
ive seen the curve of your jawbone
through a glass pane, when you looked back
and as my bones freezing over, saw that face turn to ice too
and i knew i should find myself a love that wasnt you

theres something about brooklyn keeps me looking back
over my shoulder, double take, avoid the past
ill take all of my stone faced, snowflake memories
let them flow out slow and violent, leave so mercilessly

took a while to find this street
its like ive walked through neighborhoods and moved just feet
through a room of noise i heard you whispering a breath of poise
got me looking back

brooklyn's got me looking back
brooklyn's got me looking back
brooklyn's got me looking back

though it makes me bleed
at least my blood is made by me
over my shoulder, double take, avoid the past
and theres something about brooklyn keeps me looking back

to leave that leaf untouched
instead of crushing it for the rush, for the rush
id like to know i have self control
and i left behind something beautiful

brooklyn's got me looking back
brooklyn's got me looking back
brooklyn's got me looking back
brooklyn's got me looking back
