[Verse 1]
'Kay
We were safe, now we're paralyzed
Suspended in flight
At this speed, it makes no difference
Where I start or where I end
Or if you're sitting in an emergency aisle
[Verse 2]
We could be dead, complete the equation
Our names are x and n
We have no value in these calculations
Placed on a plane, pointed straight down
Traveling at five hundred feet per second
Five thousand feet from the ground
[Chorus]
(How long) Will it take us to hit?
(How fast) 'Til we start the disintegration?
[Bridge]
No time left
Just keep moving
No time left
Just keep moving
[Chorus]
(How long) Will it take us to hit?
(How fast) 'Til we start the disintegration?
[Outro]
We could be safe, now, forever
Falling in the clean blue air
Somewhere between the sun that gives us light
And the ground that puts it out
(We'll kneel in the aisles
Press our hands together
Close our eyes, speak these words
So softly, to the black box
And it goes)
"Mother, father can you hear this?
I want to thank you for all the sweetness
I'm not coming home, we're never coming home"
