Lyrics

Dig up what you hide
Excavate it
To the magnet in your core
Attracted to the pull
Falling through the fire
Is entertaining
'Til you're frozen under soil
Because you got pinned down

Aeroplane is too close to the ground
Parachutes are gone, we're going down
Either way...

So you learn from what goes wrong
Such is expected
But the corners curve too soft
When the path is all mapped out
The urgency is now
Will you make it?
With the clocks an hour slow
You're late already

Aeroplane is too close to the ground
Parachutes are gone, we're going down
Either way...

Falling faster, closer
Run for shelter, cover
Turn the controls over

This is mayday, send ou the telegram
Everyone should head for the underground
It's a coin toss lost in the wishing well
Faith in danger
Faith in happy-ever-after never found
