lyrics
This view used to bring
a smile to my face
lately it’s done nothing
but remind me of the way
The way that you used to
give me butterflies
Took me 21 days to
walk our former paradise
Step by step, brick by brick
Ill reclaim what is mine
This city is way too small
to give away to just one guy
Street by street, breath by breath
From the Back Bay to the sky
I’m taking back my city,
Taking back my life
The café
Where you asked me for my name
The bookstore where we spent
5 hours hiding from the rain
It's like a game of monopoly
except I steal back all of my property
And leave you on the ground
and I know that I’ll see you one day on the street
with a girl on your arm but I won’t let that keep
me from this town
Step by step, brick by brick
I’ll reclaim what is mine
This city is way too small
to give away to just one guy
Piece by piece, breath by breath
From the Back Bay to the sky
I’m taking back my city
Taking back my life

I think it's difficult to write songs about something other than romantic love, and still be able to communicate the intensity with which those feelings can hit a person. Some of the entries on this album are fantastic examples of this niche. dani_bloop

I just started listening to this album today and am IN LOVE! Every track is perfect.
I'm slightly sad I didn't start listening to boygenius until but happy to be a fan of their music <3 lissie_a
