Windy City Joseph Video (MV)

The existential dread, I thought I could suspend, I didn't think it'd happen to us
But when the sky turned red, you left before the end, let the rain turn me to rust
Called me your muse like we'd never part
But any fool could've seen better just what you were
A windy city burden on my heart

I'd like to lodge a complaint
I met a boy, said he was carried by Zephyr
And I was fooled by the paint
He wrote a song that made me lighter than feathers

Sang it together like a cheesy duet
I should've known it when his singing was flat
That when I tried to get the wind to commit
He'd leave me like that

The existential dread, I thought I could suspend, I didn't think it'd happen to us
But when the sky turned red, he left before the end, and let the rain turn me to rust

Windy city Joseph, I offered him my heart, he said he'd give it a miss
Makes a pretty love myth
I thought I found my Cupid, but I only found a wordsmith
Windy city Joseph

We took a trip in July
He wrote me poems on a Chicago train
I thought my man was too shy
He wouldn't take our kind of love and give it a name

I gave him time and I gave him my trust
Who could break your heart who writes you lyrics like that?
Too ashamed to tell my friends "Chicago's a bust"
He left me like that

Windy city Joseph, I offered him my heart, he said he'd give it a miss
Makes a pretty love myth
I thought I found my Cupid, but I only found a wordsmith
Windy city Joseph

All my friends were telling me "he's leading you on"
Blame me cause I'd hoped he'd stay for one more song
Cut my heart open, let him write it as I bled
Crying on my birthday when he sang me the blues
Chorus in my memory, a lyrical bruise
Joseph may have ditched me, but his tunes never leave my head

No one's in my head like Windy city Joseph
I offered him my heart, he said he'd give it a miss
Makes a pretty love myth
I thought I found my Cupid, but I only found, I only found
Windy city Joseph
I offered him my heart, he said he'd give it a miss
Makes a pretty love myth

I thought I found my Cupid, but I only found a wordsmith
