Took the love away from you
Union was lit up bright
Time of year when day looked like night
Muttering a small exchange
Holding in teardrops like a drain
What if we overslept
You wouldn’t have gone or you wouldn’t have left
You are my Chicago fire
Burn me down just to build me higher
You say you have your reasons
Your heart is changing seasons
You and I, disaster & delight
I’ve seen every post you’ve made since then
I see the way you smile when you’re with him
Heard that you can wear his letters
But I’m sorry I couldn’t offer you something better
Honey I know I’ll never be your savior
I’m a good deed I’m just one of your favors
You wrote me off for an hour today
And it’s another tomorrow until you stay
You are my Chicago fire
Burn me down just to build me higher
You say you have your reasons
Your heart is changing seasons
You and I, disaster & delight
Blonde hair and social class
Your taste is built to last
From DC to Paris, France
My present is your past
You are my Chicago fire
Burn me down just to build me higher
You say you have your reasons
Your heart is changing seasons
You and I, disaster & delight

Look at me! Drunk on paranoia
I'm sorry I'm a mess but more sorry it annoys ya
I need the mess to feed my head
I try to live by feeling dead
Maybe it's my ego
Maybe it's my id
I'll use Freudian psychology to explain what I did
Shame Freud was wrong, can you sell me on God?
I need salvation and I'll take what you've got
I said "all of the greats were a little bit wack"
You said "you can be great without acting like that"
It’s not my day! It's not my fault!
Will any of this work even matter at all?
I’m looking for the point, the center, you see
I'm sorry if I act like the center is me
You see what I mean? I'm no good for myself
Won't you pity the state of my mental health?
And I want to scream “why can't you see? The thing you want is here if you would only reach"
And I want to hide off in the night and stagger home at 2AM ‘cause that's where my demons hide

Starry fleet, we take the streets
In these emergencies, we will not see
All along, they battered songs
Pain coming down, heels off the ground
Batons, violence, your move
And still too soon
I tell them all to leave me here tonight
So I lied, I always wanted to be by your side
I always wanna be by your side
A shift of face, no constant state
It's 8 AM no son, no Rays, it's 10 PM putting on a lace
And though I'll be, so hardly seen
You just breathe, you know you're queen
I know, I'm idolizing you
But I need something to hold on to
I made your job to always be my light
I swear tonight, I need to be by your side
I can’t bear to leave your side
I know them big and tall, cradle and throw you past a wall
You know that you are here always
Don't give up your fight
In cells, I clench my hands so tight
And I know you saw an end in sight
It's alright you saw an end in sight
But tonight, keep on your light
I'm by your side
I'm by your side
I'm by your side
I'm by your side

Train Song

I don't know your name
But your face looks so familiar
It's the same old thing
Whenever I'm alone too long
I imagine the life that we'd have
If only you and I could be best friends
And it changes the way that I see myself
I'm just a reflection of everybody else
And we'll play our train song, the engine carries us away
And we'll play the same song, on repeat for 16 days
And we'll play our train song, the engine carries us away
And we'll play the same song, on repeat for 16 days straight
Give it a couple days
I just need this confidence
Won't let it get away
At least that's what I tell myself
You should only see inside my head
I promise you I meant the words that I said
And we'll stand here on the corner while the cars roll by
And I'll imagine all the conversation but I was too shy
To say a word that would make some sort of difference
And now I'm crying at the station looking for significance
And we'll play our train song, the engine carries us away
And we'll play the same song, on repeat for 16 days
And we'll play our train song, the engine carries us away
And we'll play the same song, on repeat for 16 days straight
I don't know your name
But your face looks so familiar
I don't know your name
But your face
And we'll play our train song, the engine carries us away
And we'll play the same song, on repeat for 16 days
And we'll play our train song, the engine carries us away
And we'll play the same song, on repeat for 16 days straight
