Damn Girl 04:26
my mistake was letting on that i would break if you were gone well you played me hey baby you feel like a stranger but the moment i let my guard down well you took your gloves off to your sisters your mistake was being fine with screwing up to pass the time and as soon as the going got tough i got high by the time i came down you were fucking some other guy we burned so damn bright so damn fast and damn girl it was hot while it lasted but we both know where the highest highs lead how could something that feels so good be so damn bad for me and i was right you left i broke but hell that’s not what hurt the most after so many years hiding just you and me look how quickly you dragged down another to commiserate with shamelessly pretty girl with dirty thoughts fair share of licks, you took your shots cuz you’ve had it rough you feel beaten and drained but the ‘scripts work enough you don’t have to feel anything the ‘scripts work enough you don’t have to feel anything how could ya be so damn bad for me when ya feel so i'm sorry i woke you babe where you going darlin? i'm sorry i woke you love don't you go don't you go i couldn't take the noise whatcha know about it i couldn't help but run don't you go don't you go i'd feel better if you don't i'd say that i'd call ya but we both know that i won't and i'll always love ya but it's better if i don't

Younger Then 02:20
you were hot for me then cold again that’s your routine i can’t complain or disagree if i’m not around to make a scene love’s the only game you lose when you refuse to play so love me now or leave me kate honey that’s the only way i was stuck living the same damn day just my luck you came back into play i know you got plenty you need to say that you were younger then well i was younger then too you came back to me dammit baby can’t you see that i was meant for you and you for me or fate would have it seem girl you’ve had your days and lord only knows my burdens babe but if all i gotta do is change your mind then all you gotta do is stay this time i know you changed and baby that’s ok i know it seems strange but baby it’s a good mistake if i had known we’d crash and burn before i asked you in i’d still say baby hell let’s fuck it up all over again

i said some things i wish i could take back and not because they weren't true but more for lack of tact everyone's got that someone they can turn to and say  it was you my dear, the one who got away   what's that called, when you're busy making plans my head it tries to rationalize my heart still makes demands   everyone's got that someone they can turn to and say it was you my dear, the one who got away   just for tonight we can be you and me before the bad times just for tonight   i did some things i wish i hadn't done and not because of who i was but who i have become everyone's got that someone they can turn to and say  it was you my dear, the one who got away   what's that word, i'm told it's all you need with him you seem much happier with her i'm incomplete   everyone's got that someone they can turn to and say it was you my dear, the one who got away

about

After their crititically acclaimed band "The Vinyl Addicts" disbanded in 2008, Brian Murray and Anthony DeFeo began writing some new songs in an apartment on Montgomery street in Brooklyn's Crown Heights. The songs were catchy, unapologetically pop and riddled with harmonies and introspective lyrics. Over time, the new band "Montgomery Streets" became known for their energetic and ever changing live shows. In 2013 they released their first EP "Damn Girl". Produced by Chris Cubeta at GaluminumFoil Studios in Williamsburg, the album marks a huge step forward for the band. Featuring Spencer Cohen on drums and Chris Cubeta on guitar/keys, songs like "Change" boast a fuller sound and driving beat while fan favorite "The One Who Got Away" sticks to the groups acoustic roots.
