Midnight Flight - Canyon City

It’s never quite as simple as you felt it was back in the start

It came on like a movie screen the silver scenes of bleeding hearts

You never really feel alone till someone comes and disrupts the dark

Then leaving all the lanterns off you still see spots like dying off stars

You never want to feel this way again, caught in the loose threads But you have

to let them wrap you in the comfort of the end

Come on let’s ride the midnight flight

Stay up high just a little bit longer

Hold on, hold off the long goodbye

Stay gone till we’re a little bit stronger

I know down low we don’t have time

Morning fights back the minute that we come back home

Let’s ride the midnight flight

Stay up high just a little bit longer

One instant loves own changing wind can softly lift up then rip down

One minute all you hoped to give gets broken in the crash-land, now

The weight awaiting dark returns, the baggage burned, a silent house

The framing of a million scenes, played back, repeat & fading, fading out

You never want to leave this place again

Afraid of the loose threads

But you have to let them wrap you

And find comfort in the unknown ends

Come on let’s ride the midnight flight

Stay up high just a little bit longer

Hold on, hold off the long goodbye

Stay gone till we’re a little bit stronger

I know down low we don’t have time

Morning fights back the minute that we come back home

Let’s ride the midnight flight

Stay up high just a little bit longer

We’re something else when all this falls back down

You’re calling home we land alone and now

You need some time, a ride back to a town in the rest of your life

Let’s stay up high just a little bit longer

Stay gone till we’re a little bit stronger

I know down low we don’t have time

Morning fights back the minute that we come back home

Let’s ride the midnight flight

Stay up high just a little bit longer
