New York City Lyrics

Cover art for New York City lyrics by Among Savages

Everyone has a New York City, some destination where we believe that we will fit in, thrive, and be inspired. However, the song warns of "illusions" and speaks of running from something. For me, the song is asking if location is relevant. If "every day is a gift" does it matter where we are? We have to make the best of the "cards that we are dealt" "sometimes the road youre walking on is leading to nothing" "every day is a gift and its all slipping away"
