DB Cooper

[Verse 1]

I'm leaving home

Above the clouds with silver wings

I feel my guts slowly drop as engines sing

My teeth are clenched cause gravity is defied

I'm at a place where I feel dead inside

[Pre-Chorus]

I know I can't take back what I never lent

Cause all my plans, crushed in the end

[Chorus]

Desperate

As I slip the screws out from the seat

I need a way to breathe

The wind

Tears the fuselage from the tail piece

I hope it sets me free

[Verse 2]

With my nose pressed up to the window pane

I watch the lights as now they dance in rain

I breathe out to make a canvas for your name

I can't relax, my shoulders carry the blame

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

[Bridge]

I look below and weigh the rip

And now the bag is up, I'll be dropping weight

I'm diseased just like my father

He says it comes from my mother

I hope my son does not catch it

[Verse 3]

Look at what I have to do to survive

I hurt myself just to feel alive

I don't know if I'll make it back home

Cause I don't know if there's no hope left there

Everyone's looking for someway

I am looking for the one way out

I've been wasting my time standing in line

And this is what life is all about

[Chorus]
