elizabeth cregan - ludlow street lyrics

you and i are sipping coffee on the lower east side
you say, “there goes that actress”
i say, “baby, she died in 2009”

every single person in here is hotter than us
we’re drinking oat milk lattes that cost seven bucks
heat’s been out in my apartment
but baby, what a rush

and i know that i’m about
as subtle as a loaded gun
and you love to talk about
the days when we were twenty+one and
none of us knew all the names of our diseases and
i was confident enough to talk to jesus and
onе month left of being twenty+four
i hopе it never ends and
i’m looking over my shoulder pretty like a rembrandt
i have the sinking fear that i have left the faucet on
but my mom taught me how to swim so i’ll stay for one more song

you smoke your cigarettes in secret
like the smell won’t linger
we’re making jokes about
the empty sp+ce on my ring finger
folks back home are building futures
like it’s just something to do
but none of them have you

and you make me nervous
sitting there just like a loaded gun
but i love to disobey when all my instincts say to run and
now we can’t pr+nounce the names of our diseases but
we take medicine to help us feel our feelings

movie star walks in
pulls his hat down nice and low
but he vibrates with a frequency
like he’s made of radio
make an offer to the deity and hold up a camera phone
and they know that they’re about
as subtle as a loaded gun
and we decide to leave because
that’s been in the corner since act 1 and
hope they never find the cure for this disease
they can bury us on ludlow street
