lyrics

The Slice

The light glimmers
Over my ocean sinner
Cyan eyes never lie

As the sun washes up
Over Washington Heights
I burrow in the boroughs

As I’m roaming around
The city becomes a cloud
And I feel your eyes

When it comes to pizza,
New York’s the best,
So with my soul,
I’ll invest

Until the ocean
Sweeps me in
And I have a slice
Of the waters you live in

The sun yeets me up,
The birds keep me up,
It’s 8:22 and I’m in disarray

As a kid, you played on my screen
And now I feel you in every scene of my dreams

As I’m roaming around,
I search for you in a silent sound
And I feel your eyes

(Chorus)
When it comes to pizza,
New York’s the best,
So with my soul,
I’ll invest

Until the ocean
Sweeps me in
And I have a slice
Of the waters you live in

I plan a feast
In the spirit of yeast
To quell the searching ghost in me

Ramunto’s is king
For that New York thing
In the majestic mountains of North Adams

As the waiter
Takes my order
I saw your baby blues
On the news

He couldn’t turn around,
Lost as he drowned,
And the waiter had me check my order after

As my mind roamed around,
You welled up in my throat
As I couldn’t help but peer
At the waiter’s Puerto Rico necklace...

When it comes to pizza,
New York’s the best,
So with my soul,
I’ll invest

Until the ocean
Sweeps me in
And I have a slice
Of the waters you live in

So it goes,
The water’s the swan song
For you

So it goes,
The water was the final poem
For you

As this slice roams around my lips,
I come to grips
With my ocean sinner

Delivering the spirit in his eyes
To me from an Empire State sea
On a slice
With my friends at night.

Daydream Kids North Adams, Massachusetts

Hailing from North Adams, Massachusetts, Daydream Kids was formed by shoegaze/dreampop aficionado with a background in poetry, Epiphany Thomas, and her two friends, Harry and Hugo Seven of the alt-rock band The Mighty Atom. Finding that it was impossible to restrict themselves to one style, they compiled their first EP from a collection of eclectic demos, featuring covers and original material. ... more
