At This Velocity
Okay, we were safe, now we're paralyzed
Suspended in flight
At this speed it makes no difference
Where I start and where I end
Or if you're sitting in an emergency aisle
We could be dead, complete the equation
Our names are X and N
We have no value in these calculations
Placed on a plane, pointed straight down
Traveling at 500 feet per second
5,000 feet from the ground
How long will it take us to hit?
How fast 'til we start the disintegration?
No time left, just keep moving
No time left, just keep moving
How long will it take us to hit?
How fast 'til we start the disintegration?
We could be safe here forever
Floating in the clean blue air
Somewhere between the sun that gives us light
And the ground that puts it out
We'll kneel in the aisles
Press our hands together, close our eyes
Speak these words so softly to the black box
And it goes
"Mother, Father, can you hear this?
I want to thank you for all your sweetness
I'm not coming home, I'm never coming home"
Suspended in flight
At this speed it makes no difference
Where I start and where I end
Or if you're sitting in an emergency aisle
We could be dead, complete the equation
Our names are X and N
We have no value in these calculations
Placed on a plane, pointed straight down
Traveling at 500 feet per second
5,000 feet from the ground
How long will it take us to hit?
How fast 'til we start the disintegration?
No time left, just keep moving
No time left, just keep moving
How long will it take us to hit?
How fast 'til we start the disintegration?
We could be safe here forever
Floating in the clean blue air
Somewhere between the sun that gives us light
And the ground that puts it out
We'll kneel in the aisles
Press our hands together, close our eyes
Speak these words so softly to the black box
And it goes
"Mother, Father, can you hear this?
I want to thank you for all your sweetness
I'm not coming home, I'm never coming home"
