Lax To O'hare Lyrics - Santi - The Academy Is...

It was a plane ride from LAX to O'hare 

And what happened next was a series of unfortunate events 

Please stay tuned for what happened next 

Life I breathe for you gives to me new wounds 

To patch and dress as I reflect on what else I could give you 

Maybe I should blindly throw my faith 

Into the next thing that comes my way 

Standing at the back door with the life that she left behind 

Are we all the same behind the frame 

Beneath the glass and fake last names? 

Well, I've been waiting far too long to feel the sun on my back, yeah 

It was a big bang and a bright white light from nowhere 

It turned my coach class window to 

A first class seat on the evening news on NBC 

The life I gave for you is yours so keep it, you ought to keep it 

If I had one last chance to take it all back 

You know I'd take take take you 

Maybe I should blindly throw my faith 

Into the next thing that comes my way 

Standing at the back door with the life that she left behind 

Are we all the same behind the frame 

Beneath the glass and fake last names? 

I've been waiting far too long to feel the sun on my back 

"Apologies are all we'll ever be", she said 

Standing on the stairs, looking back, looking hard at me 

"Well, life is long for those who have to wait", I said 

It's the choice I had to make, the choice I had to make 

The choice I had to 

It was a plane ride 

It was a plane ride 

It was a plane ride 

Well just a plane 

Maybe I should blindly throw my faith 

Into the next thing that comes my way 

Standing at the back door with the life that I left behind 

If we know the way we're gonna die 

Through everything else we will survive 

I've been waiting far too long to feel the sun on my back, yeah 

But one day, I will stay
