"brooklyn boy" lyrics

"brooklyn boy"

I'll save my breath
This is as simple as it gets
Not pressed for time
I'm sick of misery and wine

You'll be my savior, I'll be your Brooklyn boy
Keep me from danger, 'til I go overboard
I haven't left my house in months

I'll stay in bed
Mom said, "Try therapy instead
Keep drinking water
These days that's all I have to offer"

You'll be my savior, I'll be your Brooklyn boy
Keep me from danger, 'til I go overboard
I haven't left my house in months
I'll be your angel, you'll be my flower girl
When it gets painful, I'll take all I can endure
Fuck are we fighting for? The year's already gone

No amount of time
Will change the way I feel inside
And no amount of tears
Will wash away all of my fears
No amount of time
Will change the way I feel inside

Jeremy Zucker told Apple Music the following about "Brooklyn Boy", "This is definitely a quarantine-pandemic song. A lot of the song is me building up this fantasy in my head of how I envision my life to be, and feeling frustrated that I can't be that…I can't even go outside. Also, in the first post-chorus, there's a voice that says, 'Do you think the stars wish on us?' That's my really good friend Lauren. I was feeling that way one night, and she texted me that question. I was like, 'That's the corniest but sweetest thing I've ever heard.' I asked her to record a voice memo and send it to me, and it made it into the song."
