about

The inspiration was the 2001 documentary, "Sunshine Hotel", by Michael Dominic. The footage was so amazing and, at the time, the Sunshine Hotel was the last remaining flophouse.

lyrics

New York City, on the Bowery
Above the cleaners is the Sunshine Hotel
For ten dollars, you can stay the night
You don't need to give your name
May seem scary, but it beats the street
Come and go as you please

Rooms are dark, without any windows
and the walls topped with chicken wire
But there's a bed you can spend your day on
And lay down when you tire
We don't have very much here
But we live without being judged
We all lost something, and we all have stories
And this may be the last stop

We all live at the Sunshine Hotel
To us it's home, though it might seem like hell
If these walls could talk, they'd have stories to tell
Sunshine Hotel

Empty bottles, broken needles
Paved the road for many of us

Broken thoughts, an aching mind
Can turn the world against someone

Broken hearts, and shattered dreams
It's the bond that makes us family

Rooms are dark, without any windows
and the walls topped with chicken wire
But there's a bed you can spend your day on
And lay down when you tire
We don't have very much here
But we live without being judged
We all lost something, and we all have stories
And this may be the last stop

We all live at the Sunshine Hotel
To us it's home, though it might seem like hell
If these walls could talk, they'd have stories to tell
Sunshine Hotel
