"Plane Crash In C" lyrics

If you're scared and it shows
'Cause you're watching them grow
And travelling blows when you're out of road
And when you jump up, the earth wants you back

Your resentment grows 'til you're all alone
But you're so smart, how could they not know?
When you're standing there in good-humored white

And how do you do it
And make it seem effortless?
When it's all the stupid things
So overwhelming to me
Like paying my bills
Or showing up for work early
Or laughing at your jokes

And when you first said that anything goes
Or a problem's a task disguised in work clothes
That's when I knew that I had to move

And why do you do it
And make it seem delicate?
When it's all the stupid things
So damn confusing to me
Like talking it through
Controlling my temper
Like letting it go
Saying "please forgive me"
For laughing at your jokes

I have no idea what's going on lately
And I just wish you would come over and explain things
And I have no idea what's going on lately
And I just wish you would come over and explain things
And I have no idea what's been going on lately
And I just wish you would come over and explain things
And I have no idea what's going on lately
And I just wish you would come over and explain things

And why do they do it
And show up anyway?
When they know that damn well
There's no room for promotions out here
And maybe it's wise
And maybe I'm just stupid
For laughing at your jokes
