The Racing Rats |
| [Verse 1] |
| When the time comes |
| You're no longer here |
| Fall down to my knees |
| Begin my nightmare |
| Words spill from my drunken mouth |
| I just can't keep them all in |
| I keep up with the racing rats |
| And do my best to win |
| [Verse 2] |
| Slow down little one |
| You can't keep running away |
| You mustn't go outside yet |
| It's not your time to play |
| Standing at the edge of your town |
| With the skyline in your eyes |
| Reaching up to God |
| The sun says its goodbyes |
| [Chorus 1] |
| If a plane were to fall from the sky |
| How big a hole would it leave |
| In the surface of the earth? |
| [Verse 3] |
| Let's pretend we never met |
| Let's pretend we're on our own |
| We live different lives |
| Until our cover's blown |
| I push my hand up to the sky |
| Shade my eyes from the sun |
| As the dust settles around me |
| Suddenly nighttime has begun |
| [Chorus 2] |
| If a plane were to fall from the sky |
| How big a hole would it leave |
| In the surface of the earth? |
| The surface of the earth? |
| [Bridge] |
| Come on now, you knew you were lost |
| But you carried on anyway |
| Oh come on now, you knew you had no time |
| But you let the day drift away |
| [Chorus 3] |
| If a plane were to fall from the sky |
| How big a hole would it leave? |
| If a plane were to fall from the sky |
| How big a hole would it make |
| In the surface of the earth? |
| The surface of the earth? |
| The surface of the earth? |
