Lyrics of Ananya – Man Ray

I remember your bedroom
Man Ray on the wall
Pink house out the window
My socks on the floor

You cared when you wanted
You lied all the time
Thought by now you’d notice
You maybe missed being mine?

I never got the chance to say
By then, we both walked away

You’re not all bad in my memory
That was some love you showed
I still wish on the number 23
And I still know your postcode
Sometimes, I visit our cemetery
It’s become entropy
Taking my energy
We didn’t get further than a stone’s throw
That was some love you showed

When I was 19
I was sadder than I should’ve been
But for you, I watched on widescreen
I thought we’d always be together
I got used to your bad weather

I never got the chance to say
By then, we both walked away

You’re not all bad in my memory
That was some love you showed
I still wish on the number 23
And I still know your postcode
Sometimes, I visit our cemetery
It’s become entropy
Taking my energy
We didn’t get further than a stone’s throw
That was some love you showed

For a second there,
It was quiet
West Village
on a Friday night and

For a second there
I swore by it
we were flying
but let go of our kite string

For a second there,
It was quiet
West Village
on a Friday night and

For a second there
I swore by it
We were gilded
By the high we were riding

You’re not all bad in my memory
That was some love you showed
I still wish on the number 23
And I still know your postcode
Sometimes, I visit our cemetery
It’s become entropy
Taking my energy
We didn’t get further than a stone’s throw
That was some love you showed
