And so we climbed into the sky, higher than high Frosting on the windshield and the wings began to peel The clouds seemed low below us Imagine how it feels to take this ride with the suicide pilot tonight Imagine how it feels to be this high 'Cause I remember the stars and the sirens As the trucks raced across the tarmac Waiting on a plane Waiting for a plane to never land And I held your hand like it could have made a difference If someone would listen or even take the time to understand But I'm not that man to you or your best friends We watched the sun come over us, higher than high Redder than the blood that spilled from my wrists As I made my last confession to the devil in his holy sacrament The suicide pilot tonight is taking one last ride He watched it all go down And I remember the stars and the sirens
As the trucks raced across the tarmac Waiting on a plane Waiting for a plane to never land And I held your hand like it could have made a difference If someone would listen or even take the time to understand But I'm not that man to you or your best friends ... Meet me on the corner Meet me in the pouring rain and we'll go dancing Forget about tomorrow Forget about the things they'll say I like you but you're not supposed to know Safe away from everything Safe away from everything Safe away from everything Meet me on the corner The cops are running headlong in the dark Stupid little children They'll never know where we are I like you but you're not supposed to know No-one's gonna find us out No-one's gonna find us out No-one's gonna catch us now
