lyrics

And we looked so ugly
And the stupid skyline
How it towered over
Brought a thought to my mind
Did you want to get really far?
Yeah, you wanted to make a mark

But you had to stop

And I felt so precious
Like a pearl necklace
Wanna give you something
But the gift was in this:
My friend did not want a pearl
She wanted for me to turn around and for me to just stop

Take a chance and stop

Take a chance and break, take a chance and stop
Take a chance and break with what little you got
Take a chance and break, take a chance and stop
Take a chance and break with what little you got
With what little you got

At McNally Jackson
At the coffee parlor
The aloof barista that I tipped a fiver
Said you’d be five minutes late
And then when you never came
Said your train had got stuck

In a Soho bathroom, burning out my tears there
Brought me back to High School when we brought six-packs here
You’d text me and we’d skip school
And 1st and Houston our love had grew

Til it just stopped
Til it just breaks

Til it just breaks, til it just stops
Til it just breaks with what little had stuck
Til it just breaks, til it just stops
Til it just breaks with what little had stuck
With what little had stuck

My friend did not want a pearl
My friend did not want a pearl

Take a chance and stop
Take a chance and stop
Take a chance and break, take a chance and stop
Take a chance and break with what little you got
Take a chance and break, take a chance and stop
Take a chance and break with what little you got
With what little you got
