Crushing  dreams and  crooked fault,
Trap  me in a crowded  parking  lot,
I  feel  the tide is turning,
The  ending chapter starts to fade,
 Do I really belong here anymore, anyway?
I  can’t sleep on nights  like these,
 stuck in  Chicago staring at the ceiling,
I’m  looking for something to believe in.
Walk  these city streets,
 do you remember  me, remember when,
when  I was all that you needed,
Chicago  I’m leaving.
I  count my memories  of  you,
empty  bottle midnight rendezvous,
outside, insides  burning.
Do  I really belong  here anymore,  anyway?
I  can’t sleep on nights  like these,
 stuck in  Chicago staring at the ceiling,
I’m  looking for something to believe in.
Walk  these city streets,
 do you remember  me, remember when,
when  I was all that you needed,
Chicago  I’m leaving.
I'm  leaving
 -  -  -  -  (Crescendo on the )
I  can’t sleep on nights  like these,
 stuck in  Chicago staring at the ceiling,
I’m  looking for something to believe in.
Walk  these city streets,
 do you remember  me, remember when,
when  I was all that you needed,
Chicago  I’m leaving.
 Repeat last chorus until you're dead from the awesome, then play:
 Good luck!
