Matthew Good Band Metal Airplanes Lyrics

Metal Airplanes Lyrics

On a plane, somewhere over the sea

Above the rain, the bottle 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

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 tall tomorow

So don't you
mind the gap when you leave



Broken up like a tanker on the rocks


Not room for 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 tall
tomorow

So don't you mind the gap when you leave

There'll be time
enough to turn tall tomorow

Son don't you mind the gap when you leave
