I was driving through Lemont, Illinois
Oh, the dense forest path
I was looking for a quiet place to rest my head amid the sound of the train
We like to live in our suburban little houses and start the fireworks in June
Oh there’s no place to go other than the coffee and supermarket runs with our friends
We live southwest of the biggest city
Holding on to things we hope to never leave behind
Ghosts and this town well they often haunt me
Looking for a place where I could be myself again
In my backyard, looking at the evening stars
Hair falls in the grass
This is my home, but not for long
I was biking near the I & M Canal
Searching for a meaning
Searching for an answer
I don’t know why we sit in our old lawn chairs and watch the same cars pass again
You want a peaceful place and not another field day change this is where you can be still
We live southwest of the biggest city
Holding on to things we hope to never leave behind
Ghosts and this town well they often haunt me
Looking for a place where I could be myself again
In my backyard, looking at the evening stars
Hair falls in the grass
This is my home, but not for long

Oh Chicago, bring me your light
Shelter me with your shadows of the night
Bring me all your heavy winds and breeze
You would know what lights are blinding me
I took a walk in my beloved dream

Welcome to Suburbia

I would open up my bedroom window
Peaceful silence with nothing left to say
I feel a chill inside my bones
Can’t hear a creak in my floorboards cause they’ll never know
I’m over it
Feeling restless going through the motions
In a town of 20,000 and less
Do you feel a shadow while they’re wearing masks?
They all just live in fantasy
Pure isolation keeping their dreams alive
They’ve been here longer than me, how can they keep sleepwalking?
It’s so suffocating, someone tell me why
I’m over it
Feeling restless going through the motions
In a town of 20,000 and less
Do you feel a shadow while they’re wearing masks?
Welcome to suburbia

You say my heart is confused
Running fingers through my hair
Telling me I’m not ready to love you
Fingertips tracing your grey t-shirt
Stroking your faces as it fades
Piercing my soul with your eyes
Don’t say it was all a waste
Like I was some empty space
Keep dreaming I was in Kedzie, baby
Hearing the tone of your voice inside my head
Cologne stained sheets all on this bed
Rearrange your heart inside out
I wonder how you’ll remember me
Had we really connected?
Was it more than just a message?
Like buttons start a frenzy
Oh we’re just affected
Words, pictures, phrases, forgetting humanity
Don’t say it was all a waste
Like I was some empty space
Keep dreaming I was in Kedzie, baby
