  • Is it still okay that I don't know how to be alone?
    Would it be okay if I'd just came home tonight?
    We stay in the apartment on the upper west side
    And my worst problem is I don't sleep at night
    Woman downstairs just lost her mind
    And I don't care how, I surely don't care why
    Why I know false hope
    Why I know false hope

    A storm hits the city and the lights go out
    Before I can prepare
    The whole downtown looks dark like no one lives there
    We stay in the apartment on the upper west side
    And my worst problem is I don't sleep at night
    The woman downstairs just lost her mind,
    And I don't care how, I surely don't care why
    Why I know false hope
    Why I know false hope

    She'll be alright tomorrow
    Neither of us is gonna sleep tonight
    We've false hope
    I hear you begging through the wall
    A dying animal's last call

    Is it still okay that I don't know how to be at all?
    There's a party uptown but I just don't feel like I belong at all
    Do I?
    We stay in the apartment on the upper west side
    And my worst problem is I don't sleep at night
    The woman downstairs just lost her mind,
    And I don't care how, I surely don't care why
    Why I know false hope
