Urban Dreamscape: A Journey through City Chases & Lost Romance
Lyrics
On the boulevards named after dead soldiers
Referring to streets named in honor of deceased soldiers.
White city, we chased dreams of white porches
Desire for an idealized urban life with elegant features.
Tossin' black pedals off of black roses

Watchful eyes, under statues of dead poets
Being observant in the presence of monuments to poets who have passed away.
Picture that like Kodak
Imagining scenes vividly, reminiscent of Kodak moments.
