Against What's Best - This Pilot's Going Down With the Plane

I put my face to the ground and keep my head in the clouds
I never thought it would be simple but it's harder than hell
I've got my mind in the gutter, and my heart in the shell
Of everyone I used to know before they moved out of town
And left me here by myself, alone and desperate for help
But soon enough we'll all meet up and have our stories to tell
About the shit that we did when no one else was around
And in the end it'll all work out
So come with me, let's run away and get the hell out of this place
I'll strike a match, ignite the flame, and when it's dark I'll light the way
So come with me, why can't you see this isn't how it has to be?
I'm getting by but honestly, I've never tried so hard to fly with broken wings
I guess I'm paying the price for always rolling the dice
Without considering the consequences later in life
When all the knots that I tied are just a little too tight
But there's a heavy dose of growth with every song that I write
And I'm sick of standing in line, can't keep pretending I'm fine
You think I'm taking forever I'm only taking my time
Awake for most of the night, I'd say I'm losing my mind
And all this sleep I can never seem to find
So come with me, let's run away and get the hell out of this place
I'll strike a match, ignite the flame, and when it's dark I'll light the way
So come with me, why can't you see this isn't how it has to be?
I'm getting by but honestly, I've never tried so hard to fly with broken wings
So come with me, let's run away and get the hell out of this place
I'll strike a match, ignite the flame, and when it's dark I'll light the way
So come with me, why can't you see this isn't how it has to be?
I'm getting by but honestly, I've never tried so hard to fly with broken wings
Fly with broken wings
