Let's say you're in Chicago and you're rattling along on the El
|
And the one who rides beside you is a stranger to herself
|
Nobody knows her own heart
|
You might have been introduced but you drifted apart
|
You're a long way from where you belong unaware
|
Let's say you're in Chicago and you're making out under the El
|
You're trapped in you're head humming a tune to yourself
|
There's a trapdoor in your heart
|
There's a false bottom line and it's falling apart
|
You're a long way from where you belong unaware
|
We were on pins and needles
|
You were gearing up to cry
|
I was the instigator you were the reason why
|
You're a long way from where you belong unaware
|
Let's say you're in Chicago and you're breaking up all over the El
|
You were so in love but you were only in love with yourself
|
Nobody knows her own heart
|
Things were coming together now they're falling apart
|
You're a long way from where you belong unaware
|
