Brooklyn Train - Lucy Kaplansky[00:00:00]
Written by:Lucy Kaplansky/Rick Litvin/Ben Wittman[00:00:00]
I'm a rider of the city[00:00:08]
On this Brooklyn train[00:00:09]
Held by the crowd[00:00:12]
Face to face[00:00:13]
Freeze frames in time[00:00:15]
Move through me[00:00:17]
Moments in life I[00:00:19]
Won't again see[00:00:21]
A pack of kids gets on board[00:00:23]
Loud and laughing[00:00:26]
They rule the car[00:00:28]
Non stop rhythm of[00:00:30]
Words and speed[00:00:32]
The sound of the young[00:00:34]
The sound of the city[00:00:35]
Down below on iron veins[00:00:40]
Rolling waves of subway trains[00:00:43]
Rails of mercy[00:00:47]
Cross the lives of men[00:00:49]
Safe in the body of[00:00:51]
New York again[00:00:53]
Asian men selling[00:00:59]
Firetrucks and flags[00:01:00]
The mixed up voices[00:01:02]
Of a duop band[00:01:03]
Sailors and whites[00:01:06]
Dance and sing[00:01:08]
Beneath the streets[00:01:09]
Part of everything[00:01:11]
A family just arrived from JFK[00:01:13]
A couple of boys[00:01:17]
Another on the way[00:01:18]
A mother is watching[00:01:20]
Remembers her son[00:01:22]
Buys some firetrucks[00:01:24]
Gives each of them one[00:01:26]
Down below on iron veins[00:01:30]
Rolling waves of subway trains[00:01:34]
Rails of mercy[00:01:37]
Cross the lives of men[00:01:39]
Safe in the body of[00:01:41]
New York again[00:01:43]
Amid all these others[00:01:51]
It's myself I see[00:01:52]
And the thread that[00:01:54]
Connect these faces to me[00:01:56]
And those who rode these[00:01:58]
Rails before me[00:02:01]
And the others who'll ride this[00:02:02]
Train after me[00:02:05]
Williamsburg bridge[00:02:10]
Sun hits the train as[00:02:12]
It rises over the city again[00:02:13]
Nobody speaks[00:02:17]
Everyone stares[00:02:19]
Remembering all that[00:02:21]
Used to be there[00:02:23]
And only the living[00:02:25]
Know what loss means[00:02:27]
Riding together on this[00:02:28]
Morning train[00:02:31]
Down below on iron veins[00:02:34]
Rolling waves of subway trains[00:02:38]
Rails of mercy[00:02:42]
Cross the lives of men[00:02:44]
Safe in the body of[00:02:46]
New York again[00:02:48]
Safe in the body of[00:02:49]
New York again[00:02:51]
