[Verse 1]
Caught in a love storm
Howling like a newborn
Trying hard to stay warm
My cover up is torn up and tattered
Addiction to apocalypse
Looking for the big hit
Tending to take trips
The ship of love is beat-up and battered

[Pre-Chorus]
Time after time
I blow me away
Sign on the street now
Brother, let me pray now
Winter's here, I believe it's here to stay

[Chorus]
I read somewhere that religion is for people
Who want to stay out of hell
I was praying for a sign or a vision or a message
'Til you been there you won't get well
I was sitting in a room, I never recognized it
With a picture before my eyes
I was sleeping in the middle of the bed again
I'm not sure this qualifies
[Verse 2]
Lost in a crosswalk
Battle only half fought
Crawling 'cause I can't talk
Childhood's finally caught up with me
Flashing like a neon
Noisy as an A-bomb
Looking to the beyond
Staring into the half-life of eternity

[Pre-Chorus]
Time after time
I blow me away
Time on the street now
Brother, let me pray now
Winter's here, I believe it's here to stay

[Chorus]
I read somewhere that religion is for people
Who want to stay out of hell
I was praying for a sign or a vision or a message
'Til you been there you won't get well
I was sitting in a room, I never recognized it
With a picture before my eyes
I was sleeping in the middle of the bed again
I'm not sure this qualifies
I read somewhere that religion is for people
Who swear they need to be saved
I was sleeping in the middle of the bed again
You can trust me, I will be brave
[Bridge]
New York, New York
The Big Apple
New York, New York
New York, New York
Sixteen million feet stepping on each other
New York is a state of mind

[Pre-Chorus]
Time after time
I blow me away
Time on the street now
Brother, let me pray now
Winter's here, I believe it's here to stay

[Chorus]
I read somewhere that religion is for people
Who want to stay out of hell
I was praying for a sign or a vision or a message
'Til you been there you won't get well
I was sitting in a room, I never recognized it
With a picture before my eyes
I was sleeping in the middle of the bed again
I'm not sure this qualifies
I read somewhere that religion is for people
Who swear they need to be saved
I was sleeping in the middle of the bed again
You can trust me, I will be brave
I read somewhere that religion is for people
Who swear they need to be saved
I was sleeping in the middle of the bed again
You can trust me, I will be brave
