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   You're a long way from where you belong unaware
