Airport

(album: Square 1 - 2018)

Well, a man from the west once told to me
"Just a credit card and proof of identity
Will take you anywhere you need to be
We're all lost and found"

So I left my home with a grain of hope
I didn't think too much of how I'm gonna cope
Kept your letter in its envelope
For you, I am bound

Because things can't get much worse 'round here
There's too much lost we once held dear
Home is now a place I fear
Tumbling down

Didn't sleep so well
I'm a bag of nerves
If they ask me why, will I find the words?
Never flown
Cannot be a bird
Free from the ground

My seat is bolted to the floor of the airport
I hope they let me through the doors of the airport
And I love you, love you so much more from the airport
We're neither here nor there in an airport
We're no one

Met a woman sitting next to me
So glad to reunite with her family
Well, we didn't talk much
For the gravity and the motion so high

She had the same-shaped hands as you
Carved from deep within the lands we grew
Now full of bones where the war ensues
Oh my, oh my

Don't take me back
All I have is gone
This is all I've kept to carry on
I said my goodbyes

My photographs, my videos
Don't make me laugh
See, what they show
That's the reason that I had to go
With tears in my eyes

My seat is bolted to the floor of the airport
I hope I make it through the doors of the airport
And I love you, love you so much more from the airport
We're neither here nor there in an airport
We're no one
Nowhere

My seat is bolted to the floor of the airport
I hope I make it through the doors of the airport
And I love you, love you so much more from the airport
We're neither here nor there in an airport
We're neither here nor there in an airport
No one
Nowhere
