lyrics

Outside my window an ocean of cloud
My shadow cast upon the cabin wall
The sun it sets behind a strange and distant planet
No place that I can recall

And I’m flying over Chicago, over Chicago
Chasing answers I don’t want
The beat is driven by the rumbling of the engines
And the music won’t stop

My head is swimming with practiced conversations
Rehearsing things that I might say
Making sure to say the right words and the right time
On some other earth, some other day

And I’m flying over Chicago, over Chicago
Chasing answers I don’t want
The beat is driven by the rumbling of the engines
And the music won’t stop
Won’t stop and let me off

The Earth’s rotation turns day into night
The city lights reveal their glow
Slicing a framework through a future I can’t fathom
In the darkness down below

And I’m flying over Chicago, over Chicago
Chasing answers I don’t want
The beat is driven by the rumbling of the engines
‘til the landing gear drops
and the crew take their spots
and the music stops
