Matthew Good - Metal Airplanes Lyrics

On a plane, somewhere over the sea
Above the rain, the battle sets me free
I turn to stone, fall back in my seat
The cuts are gone but somehow I'm still bleeding

You know it's true, there's nothing I can do
You know it's true, there's nothing I can do
You know it's true, there's nothing I can do about you

Move to France, La Rochelle or Nice
Get a house, pretend to live in peace
Paint the walls, a blackout of your face
Stalk the halls then move into the basement

You know it's true, there's nothing I can do
You know it's true, there's nothing I can do
Pick a fight, it's just you being right
Walk away, there's nothing I can say
You know it's true, there's nothing I can do about you

So don't you mind the gap when you leave
There'll be time enough to turn tail tomorrow
Don't you mind the gap when you leave

Broken up like a tanker on the rocks
Not made much, I'm like the Cubs against the Sox
On a plane, somewhere over the sea
I fall asleep convinced that I ain't breathing

You know it's true, there's nothing I can do
You know it's true, there's nothing I can do
Pick a fight, it's just you being right
Walk away, there's nothing I can say
You know it's true, there's nothing I can do about you

So don't you mind the gap when you leave
There'll be time enough to turn tail tomorrow
Don't you mind the gap when you leave
There'll be time enough to turn tail tomorrow
Don't you mind the gap when you leave
