"Plane Crash In C" lyrics - RILO KILEY
If you're scared and it shows
'Cause you're watching them grow
And traveling blows when you're out of road
And when you jump up, the earth wants you back
Your resentment grows until you're all alone
But you're so smart, how could they not know?
When you're standing there in good-humoured white
[Chorus:]
And how do you do it and make it seem effortless?
When it's all the stupid things, so overwhelming to me
Like paying my bills, or showing up for work early
Or laughing at your jokes
And when you first said that anything goes
Or a problem's a task disguised in work clothes
That's when I knew that I had to move
[Chorus:]
And why do you do it and make it seem delicate?
When it's all the stupid things, so damn confusing to me
Like talking it through, controlling my temper
Like letting it go, saying, "Please, forgive me..."
For laughing at your jokes
[Bridge:]
I have no idea what's going on lately
And I just wish you would come over and explain things
And I have no idea what's going on lately
And I just wish you would come over and explain things
And I have no idea what's been going on lately
And I just wish you would come over and explain things
And I have no idea what's going on lately
And I just wish you would come over and explain things
[Chorus:]
And why do they do it?
They show up anyway
When they know that damn well
There's no room for promotions out here
And maybe it's wise
And maybe I'm just stupid
For laughing at your jokes
