letra de headed back to chicago - brandon harrod

the wet bluegr-ss is shining periwinkle today
and my heart pumps a medium cadmium red
dripping into my mouth and this river, but i’m headed back to chicago
where the ice can freeze my heart

i could stare at these dogwoods all day
the blossoms more canary than cream
something actually worth writing about
the smell a burden but also a sign of home
and the bark is brittle just like my bones
now thick enough to survive on our own, but i’m headed back to chicago
where the sidewalks will just stare back
i can barely move in my own skin
ill strain my body just to stay warm

i never once thought twice about this third rate land
and everyone that ruins its very name
the torn down buildings still dripping with the sweat of my heritage
now buried in shall graves on the outskirts of town
where i’m meant to be unless you can think of others
but i’m headed back to chicago, where everyone says ill die
2.7 million people, none will hear you cry
it wont really matter anyway, because i’m headed back to chicago
because that’s where i’m supposed to stay
