Emergency Landings

(album: Zoetic - 2016)

I won't die;
my eyes will open immediately on the other side.
No, I won't ever die.
My eyes will open immediately on the other side.

Spirits in the sky
Airplane flying high
Round-trip turned into one way
Above the U.S.A.

And then he whispered in my ear,
a resounding, "Don't be scared"
But we were crying.
He said, "I won't die.
My eyes will open immediately on the other side.
No, I won't ever die.
My eyes will open immediately on the other side."

Flight ordinary and then emergency landing
Once occupied right next to me, now an empty seat
Then from O'Hare to JFK
A resounding epiphany in my mind rings
That I won't die,
my eyes will open immediately on the other side.
No, I won't ever die.
My eyes will open immediately on the other side.

And just like that you lose something.
And just like that you need something.
And just like that you feel something.
Just like that.

I won't die.
My eyes will open immediately on the other side.
No, I won't ever die.
My eyes will open immediately on the other side.
