"Parachutes"
Kids are insane, sick in the brain,
Licking the same wounds,
Sit with the same wound above us,
But we’re different from the others
Cause we share the same pain.
It’s mutual, it’s beautiful.
And all of our tears, and all of our fears
They all come in one form,
And yet with think we’re from a different storm
The ain’t no question how
You’ve got to realize now
That it’s mutual, it’s beautiful.
So how long will we continue to ride this sunken ship?
‘Cause I believe, yes I believe that we can find the surface,
And even though it seems like this airplane is going down,
Don’t be afraid, it will all be okay, see they’re plenty of parachutes to go around.

See, for whatever its worth,
I never left earth,
I choked on my own blood,
Along with my own gun,
Surrounded by no one.
And now that I’m gone, I still sing my song,
To try to keep the children away from all the killing
To show them a new mission,
Trying to keep some peace in their hearts.
So how long will we continue to ride this sunken ship?
‘Cause I believe, yes I believe that we can find the surface,
And even though it seems like this airplane is going down, down, down,
Don’t be afraid, it will all be okay, see they’re plenty of parachutes to go around.
A parachute (x3)
Uh huh, yeah
