Lyrics
Chicago in the morning, chafing at the sky
channeling its light to an economy of eyes.

We can only tell the seasons
by the numbness of the wind.

Until one spring
a color in the corners of our eyes
grew across the sterile sides of towers and facades.
The flowers held our breath and asked
nothing in return.
