The Flight

(album: Do Not Engage - 2014)

We move in flight
It's day and then it's night
They could escape
But for us it's too late
Why can't I just jump out?
Why can't I just jump out?

There's no way of knowing
If anyone else is left
I could leave this plane
If only for a test
It's in the details
They've got that figured out
But you're screaming about monsters
And I'm terrified with doubt

Why can't I convince myself?
Why can't I convince myself?

Things we can't control
Are gonna swallow us whole
This staccato is deafening
I can't shake this sinking feeling

Why are we going back?
Why are we going back?

It's a curse
It's a curse
Expecting the worst

Time is short
Now that I've lost control
If I can just go to sleep
I won't feel the black hole

Why can't I start over?
Why can't I start over?

It's a curse
It's a curse
Expecting the worst
It's a curse
It's a curse
Expecting the worst
It's a curse
It's a curse
Expecting the worst
It's a curse
It's a curse
Expecting the worst
