    LYRICS:
    [VERSE 1]
    While I'm on Sunset, are you on the subway?
    While I drive, are you gettin' on the L-train?
    I mean, Manhattan's nice, but so are Malibu nights
    You would know if you stayed,
    You would know if you put up a fight
    Your toes turn blue in winter, I'm gettin' red
    Rum does the trick for all of the things left unsaid
    I'm missin' our drunken 2 A.M. strolls in K-Town
    Now you're chasing fake highs in the Upper West Side
    [PRE-CHORUS 1]
    And fuckin' on Brooklyns in Brooklyn,
    Your Chelseas in Chelsea
    Hope that eases the pain, so you remember to miss me
    And you sold your car, now you walk for miles
    Bet your feet feel numb
    (Crosswalks in my mind are shaky, so please hold on tight)
    [CHORUS]
    All my demons run wild
    All my demons have your smile
    in the city of angels, in the city of angels
    Hope New York holds you
    Hope it holds you like I do
    While my demons stay faithful,
    in the city of angels
    [VERSE 2]
    Summer's endin' now and the nights are coolin' down
    Remember last winter when we would drive around
    Silverlake, Hollywood, pretty little white lies got me good
    Thought this was love, I was misunderstood, mm
    [PRE-CHORUS 2]
    Feelin' low on the low, drivin' through NoHo
    If I'm honest, I'd call, but I'm trying to let go
    And I hope you're happy, livin' life in taxis
    But you'll always have me, you'll always have me
    [CHORUS]
    All my demons run wild
    All my demons have your smile
    in the city of angels, in the city of angels
    Hope New York holds you
    Hope it holds you like I do
    While my demons stay faithful
    in the city of angels

  • @mykosmos3976
    @mykosmos3976 Před 4 lety +8070

    I think the lyrics about selling the car, walking for miles, living live in taxis connects in such a way that it tells about her and the relationship.
    Basically the music is about losing your significant other. "And you sold your car", selling is somewhat like throwing away the things that you don't want anymore, in this case the guy broke up with her. Having a car can be seen as a comfort / luxury in life, which on the next line "now you walk for miles and your feet feels numb" can also mean that his life is not comfortable anymore now that she's gone and his heart is not feeling any love (numb). The taxi part "and I hope yoy're happy living life in taxis" can explain how he tries to find new lovers but no one really lasts (only temporarily).
    NIKI, YOUR LYRICS ARE SO GENIUS. MY QUEEEN 🔥😭

    Shes fckin genius songwriter. She uses many homophones in this song.
    1.25 - “hope New York holds you” (Actual lyric) and it might sounds like “hope New York cold to you” She deeply want him to feel regret.
    2.17 - “you always have me” it sounds like “you’re always happy” she realized that he is always happy even without her.

    Lyrics:
    While I'm on Sunset, are you on the subway?
    While I drive, are you gettin' on the L-train?
    I mean, Manhattan's nice, but so are Malibu nights
    You would know if you stayed, you would know if you put up a fight
    Your toes turn blue in winter, I'm gettin' red, rum
    Does the trick for all of the things left unsaid, I'm
    Missin' our drunken 2 A.M. strolls in K-Town
    Now you're chasing fake highs in the Upper West Side
    And fuckin' on Brooklyns in Brooklyn
    Your Chelseas in Chelsea
    Hope that eases the pain, so you remember to miss me
    And you sold your car, now you walk for miles
    Bet your feet feel numb
    (Crosswalks in my mind are shaky, so please hold on tight)
    All my demons run wild
    All my demons have your smile
    In the city of angels, in the city of angels
    Hope New York holds you
    Hope it holds you like I do
    While my demons stay faithful
    In the city of angels
    Summer's endin' now and the nights are coolin' down
    Remember last winter when we would drive around?
    Silverlake, Hollywood, pretty little white lies got me good
    Thought this was love, I was misunderstood, mmm
    Feelin' low on the low, drivin' through NoHo
    If I'm honest, I'd call, but I'm trying to let go
    And I hope you're happy, livin' life in taxis
    But you'll always have me, you'll always have me
    All my demons run wild
    All my demons have your smile
    In the city of angels, in the city of angels
    Hope New York holds you
    Hope it holds you like I do
    While my demons stay faithful
    In the city of angels

    Hey, I bumped into a piano vocal cover video of this first (just 5mins ago) and that was the first I heard of you, let alone the song itself. Your signing is just right, but it is your songwriting and the arrangement that gives its replay value. I haven’t been moved like this by popular music since I first heard Laura Mulva’s music.
    You are very talented. Don’t let the industry sully you. You are very special.

    This song makes me so sad. I had a crush on a guy I knew since 4th grade (I'm now a sophomore in college). He always had this huge ego and he was bullied for it. I saw through all of it. He had strict parents and out of everyone, he was the hardest on himself. I like him even though he was outwardly rude to me, my friends, and even adults. He boasted about how smart he was ALL the time, and he was smart, but people hated him for that.
    He grew up and this disappeared. Halfway through high school, he realized how much of a douchebag he was. He used to be super short and now he's super tall. He used to have the messiest mop of curly dark hair but now it's coiffed. He used to wear track pants and sweaters and now he dresses like a frat boy. He had many haters and now he has many friends. He won many academic awards, and now he goes to Columbia University in Manhattan. Even though he grew up in appearance, he grew up inside the most. No matter how he changed, he's still the sensitive and ambitious boy I met in 4th grade.
    My best friends hated him (for valid reasons) so I never told them how I felt about him. I hid this secret since 4th grade and I have still never told a single person. When I listen to this song, it reminds me of how he's living it up in New York City, working for and getting to live his dreams. He's really my inspiration.
    I don't live in Los Angeles, I live in the Midwest, but the lyrics still pierce my core. I miss him a lot, and I always wonder how he's doing. I stalk his Spotify.
    ===
    edit (July 17, 2020): I'm still working on the Wattpad story so please stay tuned! Also, I can't find his Spotify anymore can I get an F in chat

      Henry Low In the first line she’s basically saying that even though he hurt her badly she’ll always be there for him. In the second line the city of angels is Los Angeles a city in California where she lived, the demons are her the bad feelings that follow or are “faithful” so she’s hinting at the irony

    Her voice and the beautifully written lyrics has been stuck in my head for days since I first heard it on Spotify..
    When she said "pretty little white lies got me good. thought this was love, I was misunderstood" damn I felt that.
    I'm currently at a moving on stage from a relationship that failed since we became long distance bc of covid lockdown. We used to be together everyday and it's been hard but we tried to make it work. I'm slowly coming to a realization that looking back at our memories, it already seemed like it's going nowhere but I was too busy looking at him through rose-colored glasses. Being apart just seemed to trigger us both because our situation became too inconvenient and apparently we weren't that solid. All I could say is that I'm also done making excuses for him and waiting for him to change. I won't hold on to empty promises anymore because I know I deserve better and I'll just focus on working on myself.
    Someday I'll be able to love again and that person will be everything I prayed for and more.
    I''ll look back at this comment someday, fully healed.

Plus he has a girlfriend and going back there in couple of days. It just goddamn hurts to see his face again after so many years. I'm crying right now as I typed this... But thank you so much your angelic voice is like my therapy and it kept me going. Much love, E

The worse thing is I didn't want to let him go but I had to because I know that his parents is disapproving of our relationship. All I know is they go through his inboxes and I'm afraid that they might hurt him. So I broke up with him even though I love him so much.

    While I'm on Sunset, are you on the subway?
    While I drive, are you getting on the train?
    I mean, Manhattan's nice, but so are Malibu nights
    You would know if you stayed
    You would know if you put up a fight
    Your toes turn blue in winter, I'm gettin 'red, rum
    Does the trick for all of the things left unsaid, I'm Missin 'our drunken 2 AM Strolls in K-Town
    Now you're chasing fake highs in the Upper West Side
    And fuckin 'on Brooklyns in Brooklyn Your Chelseas in Chelsea Hope that eases the pain So you remember to miss me
    And you sold your car
    Now you walk for miles your feet feel numb (Crosswalks in my mind are shaky, so please hold on tight)
    All my demons run wild All my demons have your smile
    In the city of angels In the city of angels
    Hope New York holds you
    Hope it hold you like I do
    While my demons stay faithful In the city of angels
    Summer's endin ' now and the nights are coolin 'down
    Remember last winter when we would drive around?
    Silverlake, Hollywood, pretty little white lies got me good
    Thought this was love, I was misunderstood, mm
    Feelin 'low on the low, drivin' through NoHo If I'm honest, I'd call, but I'm trying to let go
    And I hope you're happy, livin 'life in taxis
    But you'll always have me, you'll always have me II
    All my demons run wild
    All my demons have your smile
    In the city of angels In the city of angels Hope New York holds you
    Hope it hold you like I do
    While my demons stay faithful
    In the city of angels
