Brooklyn Songtext
von Heatstroke

The Brooklyn bridge has always
had more than me
It′s something people come to see
It's got responsibility and history
It′s got a boatload of stability
Yeah the Brooklyn bridge has
Always had more than me

The Brooklyn bridge always stays high
When I score sometimes I think so can I
But then I come down and I wanna die
cause the people they all pass me by
Yes, the Brooklyn Bridge always stays high

I'm gonna fall off the Brooklyn bridge
Life's a son of a bitch
This city′s just too goddamn rich for me


The Brooklyn bridge ain′t forgiving anyway
People died to build it so the people say
If it were up to me I'd blow it away
Cause I can′t take another fuckin' day
This city ain′t forgiving anyway

The Brooklyn bridge has got me
Standing on the ledge
I don't feel any fear looking over the edge
And then a voice calls to me and says
What′s the matter with you Des
It's me! Jacey! Talk to me!
Get off that ledge!

Now I'm walking off the Brooklyn bridge
Cause Jacey Finn has a hand to give
Saints are here in the city can′t you see


You walked into the room
Looking for the booze
You know there′s nothing left
But there's nothing left to lose
Surrounded by a cloud
And you′ve got dirt in your eyes
You get the little pills to bring you back
until you don't know the truth from lies
You′re an atomic bomb
Waiting to go off
You're bleeding from the inside
And you′ve got that smokers cough
Take the bottle from your lips
And the bill from your nose
Take the needle from your arm
Get the smell out of your clothes

You know that Brownsville
Ain't so tough anyway
The Brooklyn Bridge ain't so tough anyway
