(pretend to sleep an extra hour)
tell yourself it's to be safe
but you're waiting on a call
or a text
or an email
or a letter
or a friend
you're waiting on connection
from a plane that never lands
(lay there just another day)
check the time
it's the witching hour
and you're cold
and it's dark
and the world feels hollow
waiting on connection
from a plane that never lands
waiting on the wishes
and the canceling of plans

from a plane that never lands
(lay there just another day)
check the time
it's the witching hour
and you're cold
and it's dark
and the world feels hollow
waiting on connection
from a plane that never lands
waiting on the wishes
and the canceling of plans
i'm sleepy :)
