lyrics

Oxygen and Airplanes

Need some gravel beneath your feet. An anchor to what remains.
Allow gravity to keep you company. Instead you’re sharing oxygen with airplanes
And your problems shrink to nothing, on a fading horizon.
You are pollen on it’s way to new petals to rest on.

Better off as animals.
Better off as imbeciles.
Give us ignorance,
And an undeserved smile.

On the ground, Smoking tires in the rear view,
Bracing for the impact, Is worse than the hit.
Life go ahead and flash before me
Makes me want for
Less asleep. A life of more.

Were we, were we,
Better off as animals.
Better off as imbeciles.
Give us ignorance,
And an undeserved smile.

Or we could try make it worth it.
We’re only here for a little while. For a little while.
or we could try to make it worth it.
we're only here for a little while. For a little while.

Better off as animals.
Better off as imbeciles.
Give us ignorance,
And an undeserved smile.
