Chicago

Give 'em up let 'em go,

Will follow, won't let him follow.

Take a breathe steal away,

Let him play these games play these games.

Can't cry, won't fight,

Not tonight,

Not turning off these lights

Can't shout, can't scream

Thinkin' me,

(But I can let that be)

Holding on letting go,

Why do we do this we don't know.

Stepping out standing up,

Look below,

I'm still hanging no more.

Swept away off my feet,

Can't believe how I've been floating lately

Sense a new avenue,

Know what to do

Just gotta let it take me

On a plane I'm leaving for Chicago

Any place I go you can't run

Leaving town won't be found here tomorrow

Telling stories mine has just begun

Taking over

Leaving no traces

Only smiling faces in the sun

Starting over

Tying up my laces

But the damage is done

Run a wave,

The new rave,

Let it loose and now it's losing me.

Caught between being me or a tragedy (tragedy)

Riding high,

Cloud nine, won't let me through their gates no more,

Found a place, to escape

I'm out the door

(Leaving another girl sore)

Oh you'll be fine, about time

Need someone to hold back my hands

Let me loose, let me fall, they'll understand understand

Heard it once maybe twice,

They'll find you in a ditch somewhere

Spreading wings,

Sliver things are keeping you away from here.

On a plane I'm leaving for Chicago

Any place I go you can't run

Leaving town won't be found here tomorrow

Telling stories mine has just begun

Taking over

Leaving no traces

Only smiling faces in the sun

Starting over

Tying up my laces

But the damage is done

(Shutting you out, shutting you out, shutting you out, shutting you out)

I'm shutting you out,

I'm gonna leave you behind,

One step at a time.

I'm gonna do it cause I said so,

I'm gonna make it cause I said so.

Hey yeah yeah, uh, shutting you out

Hey yeah

Yeah I'm shutting you out

I'm shutting you out

I'm shutting you out

I'm gonna shut you out

On a plane I'm leaving for Chicago

Any place I go you can't run

Leaving town won't be found here tomorrow

Telling stories mine has just begun

Take over

Leaving no traces

Only smiling faces in the sun

Starting over

Tying up my laces

But the damage is done

The damage is done

Damage is done
