the pilot

Sat up back against the wall
Your bed frame and a mattress off the floor
I handed you my heart last night
It wasn't too unlike a rocket launch

And taking off of all our garments
And darling you manned it
We're only go when you say so
We're only go when you say so

Oh, if it were simple i'd take the escape route and
Parachute into the sky
But you get to lying and it feels like i'm flying
When you tell me i'm someone you like
When you tell me i'm someone you like

So how was i supposed to take it
When you said it's not like this with others
Darling, you didn't even stutter
Looking back i should've known you only speak in lines of code

And jokes that you landed were straight from a hand book
Of things that went right in previous test flights
God i'm so stupid for not seeing right through it
We're only go when you say so

Oh, if it were simple i'd take the escape route
And parachute into the sky
But you get to lying and it feels like i'm flying
When you tell me i'm someone you like

And if i were braver, darling
I'd pull the lever tell you you're wasting my time
But you get to lying and it feels like i'm flying oh
It's only my heart on the line
Wont you tell me i'm someone you like?

We're only go when you say so
We're only go when you say so
We're only go when you say so
We're only go when you say so
