Lyrics
Another 737 rumbles overhead
And they're always close enough
To shake the walls
And I already know you haven't
Heard a word I've said
Over the din of breaking picture frames
And china down the hall
And even though
It's been like this for years
You never tire of sweeping up
The things that keep you here
But it's over your head
So get over yourself
A thousand souls go flying once again
But still you wouldn't wanna
Be like them
You are the richest convict
I have ever known
And you're serving out your term
In golden cuffs
I won't pretend that it's not easier alone
When it's all there for the taking
But what you have is good enough
And your world is only five square miles
And summer always seems to last
Twice as long as now
But it's over your head
So get over yourself
When everything familiar's gone away
Still I can't imagine why you'd stay
And I am thinking of you
As I go to take my seat
And through the window
I can see the wing
And I can spy your rooftop
As the landing gear retreats
And I wonder if my leaving here
Is breaking anything
And the unrepentant sun beats down
On old abandoned swimming pools
And the tracks outside of town
But I'm over your head
I got over myself
It was something you could
Never understand
And I'll be sure to call you when I land
Yes, I'll be sure to call you when I land
