Hawthorne Heights - Wasted In NYC Lyrics






Is this a break or a fracture? Sugar sweet and manufactured
This cavity you opened in me, won't close so easily
I'll stitch myself back together, forget the years I've wasted in NYC
Drag these bones back to Ohio, and live like there's no tomorrow

Live this life while you're still young

I'm tired, I'm tired of chasing dreams
I'm tired, I'm tired of losing sleep
For nothing and no one
I'm sinking to the bottom
And I'm gone

Is this the start or the ending? What kind of messages are you sending?
I see you for what you are, and what you are is all my fault
I'll sever ties so quickly, forget the lies that you sold me
Drag these bones back to Ohio, and live life in the shadows

Live this life while you're still young

I'm tired, I'm tired of chasing dreams
I'm tired, I'm tired of losing sleep
For nothing and no one
I'm sinking to the bottom
And I'm gone

I'm tired, I'm tired of chasing dreams
I'm tired, I'm tired of losing sleep
For nothing and no one
I'm sinking to the bottom
And I'm gone

Hawthorne Heights Wasted In NYC Comments
  1. J.... M....

    the only song that had that signature hawthorn heights sound on this album.

  2. m.... ....

    Shit, sounds like Casey Calvert. Good job Micah and Hawthorne Heights.

  3. J.... K....

    Saw them live at warped tour, they did great, I met them, amazing guys. Kind. Also very awkward!

  4. y.... ....

    No matter how good they get they will never be as good as they were

  5. B.... B....

    I miss Casey from the old albums, Hawthorne Heights went downhill quickly after his death but I really wish that more people out there would help them get back up...

  6. m.... ....

    Yea, I got terrified aswell when I first read those lyrics :/
    "Drag these bones back to Ohio and live life in the shadows".
    I think it's fair to say that they possibly were thinking about packing in, but now, hehe a year after your comment, and a new full length album coming out, I'm more optimistic then ever!

  7. J.... D....

    *looks at youtube name* yep no idea how. hahahah

  8. M.... R....

  9. s.... w....

  13. E.... G....

    God, they have got THE BEST! lyrics ever! I wish I was as talented as JT with my lyrics; but I'm getting there. Practice, practice, practice ;)

  14. B.... ....

    whos the new screamer?!?!?!?!

  15. T.... M....

  16. C.... ....

    i like the new screams <3

  17. Z.... B....

    OHHH FUCK!! :D

  18. W.... ....

    Wow I didn't hate it not a bad tune.

  19. r.... b....

    Micah screams like a Boss O_O

  20. I.... s....

    i been a fan since a day in the life stuck with them for all these years and they never get old. i could listen to them all day and not get bored of there songs

  21. K.... D....

    honestly, I am so blown away. I've been a fan since A Day in the Life but stopped listening after Casey's death. It struck me hard since he was my favorite and I approached him once in '06 but didn't say anything since I was shy. Then he died and I hated myself for not talking to him. I always said Micah could do screams with Casey if he wanted to. And now to see him doing it, really takes me back. Casey would be so proud, I love the raw sound just like the beginning days. Seriously amazing work

  22. D.... R....

    i really like this one specifically it sounds more like how they use to

  23. A.... D....

    omg, they really stepped it up...

  24. A.... M....

    Pretty stoked to see these guys in 5 days.

  25. H.... ....

    I'm really impressed with this new EP. Hawthorne Heights is looking up. A lot of people don't understand that record companies make bands change their sound so that they will appeal more to a certain target choice of music scene. Hawthorne Heights made their own record label to produce what they wanted to. Imagine if they went to Rise Records, they'd sound exactly like bands on that record label lol. I strongly support them and their new music, they deserve the respect. They've came a long ways.

  26. R.... ....

    @Monkeygrl607 Maybe that random guy knows your name is Holly, because it's shown on your channel? ^_^

  27. Y.... ....

    @Monkeygrl607 I'll keep my fingers crossed! :D

  28. D.... U....

    Screamo ftw!

  29. H.... S....

    @KCwellard Lol no. Not even close. After these 3 EPs they are having a huge USA tour. This is only the beginning.

  30. H.... S....

    @Dbrideskater They have talked about this and they will deff not be doing it. It just doesnt make sense. Most of his screams are actually words. They would have to make the words fit in with the song... Its just a messy process.

  31. T.... ....

    Rawer production, noisier sound. This band never does get old.

  32. I.... ....

    @sinial102 yes he would, RIP casey, we miss you, HH forever<3

  33. v.... ....

    yaaaaaay theyre emo again!!!!!!

  34. R.... W....

    I LOVE IT THIS HAS GOT A GREAT BEAT! I LOVE YOU HAWTHORNE HEIGHTS THIS SONG IS EPIC! XD

  35. T.... F....

    DarkoisDead> I agree

  36. B.... D....

    not that i dont like the new stuff(i do, i love screams) but i was really diggin the direction they were going in before. it was really cool nice stuff. this is still great and awesome i love it, but i fear they might just become another post hardcore band like so many others.
    regardless... they will always have a place on my ipod no matter how they sound.

  37. T.... F....

    HH should try to use some of casey's screaming from past records and plug them into some of there new songs maybe on there next album with micah of course carrying the screaming along.

  38. T.... F....

    Awsome song good album.....hawthorne heights is stepping back to there roots....the very first scream by micah when he screams "wasted in N Y C" sounds like casey, its tripping me out her but overall awsome song.

  39. R.... S....

    im so dissapointed by the Ep they put out jeesshh

  40. K.... ....

    Sounds like they're thinking about disbanding...
    'this is the start of the ending'
    'I'm tired of chasing dreams'
    'Go back to Ohio, live this life while you're still young'

    So after these last 3 EPs that's it?

    =[ I really hope not...........

  41. A.... G....
