Emergency Landings - The Rocket Summer

I won’t die;

my eyes will open immediately on the other side.

No, I won’t ever die.

My eyes will open immediately on the other side.

Spirits in the sky

Airplane flying high

Round-trip turned into one way

Above the U.S.A.

And then he whispered in my ear,

a resounding, «Don't be scared»

But we were crying.

He said, «I won’t die.

My eyes will open immediately on the other side.

No, I won’t ever die.

My eyes will open immediately on the other side.»

Flight ordinary and then emergency landing

Once occupied right next to me, now an empty seat

Then from O’Hare to JFK

A resounding epiphany in my mind rings

That I won’t die,

my eyes will open immediately on the other side.

No, I won’t ever die.

My eyes will open immediately on the other side.

And just like that you lose something.

And just like that you need something.

And just like that you feel something.

Just like that.

I won’t die.

My eyes will open immediately on the other side.

No, I won’t ever die.

My eyes will open immediately on the other side.
