Here’s a streaming version of “NYC,” the penultimate track on our upcoming LP, “Psychic Dissonance from the Unself.” It’s clearly the emotional climax of the album. The lyrics are below.

“NYC” Lyrics:

If I see the enemy
Always trapped inside my memory,
Then that’s what’s become
Of always being the lucky one
‘Cause I fought and I lost
Let me never realize the cost
The damage is done
Let me play, I’m having fun

I do not know why
I should mind, I should mind
‘Cause one day I will die
And wish I’d given it a try

As you fade and drift away
From whatever I do with my day,
I see your ghost in empty halls softly afloat
And I smile and slowly say,
“Don’t you know that I’m happy?
And that pain has got nothing to do with me”

I do not know why
I should mind, I should mind
‘Cause one day I will die
And wish I’d given it a try

I do not know why
I should mind, I should mind
‘Cause one day I will die
And wish I’d given it a try

I will not just survive
I will thrive, I will thrive
So as fast as I can run,
New York City here I come.
