See the vapours fading
As they stare into the night
Every time
It's getting harder
To be buttoned up so tight
Don't do anything to us today
(You're only flesh and bone, you'll really never know)
There's nothing left to take away
(You're only flesh and bone, you'll really never know)
I know the crash is coming
'Cause I smelt the fuel in the morning
I hear the engine stop
But I'll find my own way down
I know the crash is coming
'Cause I smelt the fuel in the morning
I hear the engine stop
But I'll find my own way down
I hear the sleepers waking
As they stare into the sky
All our lives
The rivets breaking
As we struggle up so high
Don't do anything to us today
(You're only flesh and bone, you'll really never know)
There's no-one left who wants to stay
(You're only flesh and bone, you'll really never know)
I know the crash is coming
'Cause I smelt the fuel in the morning
I hear the engine stop
But I'll find my own way down
I know the crash is coming
'Cause I smelt the fuel in the morning
I hear the engine stop
But I'll find my own way down
I see the takers taking
And relive it all again
Every time a little closer
To the truth without the pain
Don't do anything to us today
(You're only flesh and bone, you'll really never know)
There's no-one left to play the game
(You're only flesh and bone, you'll really never know)
I know the crash is coming
'Cause I smelt the fuel in the morning
I hear the engine stop
But I'll find my own way down
(You'll really never know)
I know the crash is coming
'Cause I smelt the fuel in the morning
I hear the engine stop
But I'll find my own way down
I know the crash is coming
'Cause I smelt the fuel in the morning
I know the crash is coming
'Cause I smelt the fuel in the morning
There's nothing left to take away
There's no-one left who wants to stay
