lyrics

Weightless but falling
In 200 tonnes of steel
Choking in midair
Crawling back down to the earth
Mind racing and pacing
Existensial in a nose dive
Do you wonder what comes after?
Close your eyes and see for yourself

An ethereal dream, haunting chorus of blood curdling screams
When you took to the air, did you really care where you were headed?
Will you plead with God or family
For one more day, just one more breath?

Wasting away under sea water
Never felt so close to home yet so far
Wind lashes in rage
Blood rushes through our heads
Inspiration gone, trying to hold on
There's a million places we would rather be
Instead of here, frozen in fear

Weightless but falling
In 200 tonnes of steel
Choking in midair
Crawling back down to the earth
Mind racing and pacing
Existensial in a nose dive
Do you wonder what comes after?
Close your eyes and see for yourself

All engines flare, a ball of fire cuts through the air
When you began your day, did you think that you'd be on your way
Back to ground at the speed of sound
Your convictions put to the test

Mayday, mayday they're calling
What would you've done differently
Hold them, hold them closer
Tell her, tell her tell her you love her
Chasing, chasing them back it's when keeping them together is no longer an option
Crawling into the sea, scrap metal and coral reef

Cabin fills with water
Crushes under pressure
Said that you would be here tonight
To say your goodbyes and your sorries
Now we're sinking the bottomless trenches
Where I laid no more
