Gallant - Manhattan lyrics

rate me

Brainwaves living in stills

Nightmares just floating on film babe

You found it in the white lies in the back of your mind

And you know it’s not the same reel that you dusted off before

Chorus:

So slide it in a tape deck

Put it in a VCR

Show me how you got in this predicament

Did the devil let you down?

I could tell you it’s the apex

I could tell you it’s the Alhambra

Take another shot of your adrenaline

And pray you get that far

Sharp turns covered in skin

I bet the black gates just letting you in

You want another sure thing, a super 8 dream

But you know this aint a classic or one you’ve ever seen before

2 x Chorus:

So slide it in a tape deck

Put it in a VCR

Show me how you got in this predicament

Did the devil let you down?

I could tell you it’s the apex

I could tell you it’s the Alhambra

Take another shot of your adrenaline

And pray you get that far

[It came on paddle boats

Upon arrival we tried so hard to flee

It followed]
