lyrics
Scared to death get on that flight
Ten hours on this missile
Pills and whiskey are my plight
My worries now are futile
I’d rather not be on this runway
Wheels on the white line
Pass the bottle I’ll beat it someday
Always feels like my time
Oh my god I’m so afraid
I can’t believe I’m here again
The engine roars, I ain’t religious
I really pray that Jesus hears this
Every bump my heart sinks deeper
I really should have popped those sleepers
I know I’ll have to sit this trial
When we touch down I’ll walk out in denial
Inflight entertainment starts
And you’re not here to hold my hand
Plastic smiles hide broken hearts
Without you if we don’t land
Wheels touch down and I can’t breathe
My nails come out the seat
This whole projectile sighs relief
Two more weeks my heart will beat
Got to catch that purple sky
My windows down that west coast drive
Through dessert dusts feel so alive
All the way to 'Frisco
Ten hours on this missile
Pills and whiskey are my plight
My worries now are futile
I’d rather not be on this runway
Wheels on the white line
Pass the bottle I’ll beat it someday
Always feels like my time
Oh my god I’m so afraid
I can’t believe I’m here again
The engine roars, I ain’t religious
I really pray that Jesus hears this
Every bump my heart sinks deeper
I really should have popped those sleepers
I know I’ll have to sit this trial
When we touch down I’ll walk out in denial
Inflight entertainment starts
And you’re not here to hold my hand
Plastic smiles hide broken hearts
Without you if we don’t land
Wheels touch down and I can’t breathe
My nails come out the seat
This whole projectile sighs relief
Two more weeks my heart will beat
Got to catch that purple sky
My windows down that west coast drive
Through dessert dusts feel so alive
All the way to 'Frisco
