about

song about being on a plane and coming out of a very bad, turbulent storm, and the plane begins to go down, prompting you to think about all your relationships back home. but I guess it's hard to focus in that kind of situation.

wrote it in a dream; it was being played by Twin Atlantic to a half-filled Leeds Arena and featured Ellie Goulding.
weird stuff man

lyrics

With the words crying down
I think we'll be alright
I've got some hands in the back
Just waiting for the right night

Sorry I'm telling you to
Sorry I'm holding you to

The curtains are closing
On another successful storm
With the ones holding hard
Marching onwards as one

With the worst over now
I think we should be fine
But the phantoms are yelling
They're waiting like vultures,
waiting for the engines to fail

Sorry I'm telling you to
Sorry I'm holding you to

The curtains are closing
On another successful storm
With the ones holding hard
Marching onwards as one
Sometimes we'll fall apart
As if we are torn
Darling are we staying together,
or am I chained to you?

And if this happened again,
I don't know
This isn't getting better

This isn't getting better

Sorry I'm telling you to
Sorry I'm holding you to

The curtains are closing
On another successful storm
With the ones holding hard
Marching onwards as one
Sometimes we'll fall apart
As if we are torn
Darling are we staying together,
or am I chained to you?
