Savatage - Not What You See New Acoustic Version 2009 Lyrics

I've been here since '81
That's a long time
I've seen all there is to see
Had a space on Astor Place
Had it all once
Now these streets
Are my reality
Because
New York City
Don't mean nothing
It's just a good place when you're running
Lights they cut so bright they make you bleed
Neon children live their lives there
Mad magicians tinsel nightmares
Still you know I'm never gonna leave
Never sleep alone on the subway
Never walk alone on the tracks
Never take a ride to the edge of your mind
Unless you've got a ticket back
Don't believe in T.V. preachers
Don't believe in talk show stars
Never follow trends if they turn on your friends
Just be sure you know who your friends are
'Cause if you're running blind
On a refueled mind
Better watch the time
Careful you don't go too far
Never burn the bridges before you
Never burn the bridges behind
Don't burn the one that you're walking on
Gonna hit the water in time
Don't believe in expectations
Don't believe in shooting stars
If you make a stand on a dead empty hand
Never let 'em see your cards
'Cause if you're running blind
On a refueled mind
Better watch the time
Careful you don't go too far
Too far
Can't you hear...
New York City
Don't mean nothing
It's just a good place when you're running
Still you know I'm never gonna leave
