Sad Pilot Lyrics

[Verse 1: Joey Walker]
I've been to the doctor somewhat recently (Because)
I haven't felt safe in my skin (Uh-uh)
There's an army of torment policing my pain
And it's got me disintegrating

[Pre-Chorus: Joey Walker]
How will it manifest? (Manifest)
And from what materials will it be made? (I don't know, I don't know)
How long can one spend dying (Dying before)
Before they completely disappear?

[Chorus: Joey Walker / Stu Mackenzie / Ambrose Kenny-Smith]
Gotta leave my problems at the jet bridge (Problems)
Can't be carrying heavy luggage
Gotta leave my problems at the jet bridge (Problems)
Can't be carrying heavy luggage
Relationships, falling to pieces
(No matter how much I keep on screaming)
Treat 'em how you like to be treated
Leave your problems at the door

[Verse 2: Ambrose Kenny-Smith]
The turmoil is boilin' up, steaming hot
Wish I never let it get to this point of no return
Seems as though I've hit a roadblock
My wheels ain't pulling up, they keep dragging down

[Pre-Chorus: Ambrose Kenny-Smith]
I've got a lot of fuel to burn
I've been drinkin' (Drinkin', drinkin')
On the job
Not much thinkin' going on about the passengers I got on board
Satan's winkin' (Winkin', winkin')
And giving me the nod
My eyelids are twitching from my beer goggles as I'm tryna clear the fog

[Chorus: Joey Walker / Stu Mackenzie / Ambrose Kenny-Smith]
I gotta leave my problems at the jet bridge
Can't be be carrying heavy luggage
I gotta leave my problems at the jet bridge
Or you'll be sufferin' some heavy losses
Psychologists, no, they ain't listenin'
No matter how much I keep on screamin'
Treat me like you treat the other ones
If I'm to leave my problems at the door

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro: Stu Mackenzie]
I'll just keep on winging it (Wing it)
There's always blue skies ahead (Blue skies)
I'll just keep on winging it (Wing it)
Gotta keep it all up in the air
Put my chin up (Chin up)
Fly high (Fly high)
Zenith (Zenith)
Ascent (Ascent)
I'll just keep on winging it (Wing it)
Gotta keep it all up in the air
