You little creep   That's what she said   These quotes from your mother   Get better every day   You'll be nothing, just like your father   At least that's what the kids at school say      And Jami spent her Christmas at the airport   She said planes made her feel like she could get away   And I spent Christmas in a detox ward, I wish I had an airport someday   'Cause somedays are just so hard         And we hung like space stations and rocketships   And dreamed like we were things of the sky   And we dressed like kings and queens and lovers   And shouted out into the night "we're never gonna die"      And I've waited here for hours, hoping that you'd call   And my dialing finger's tired, and your machine is full   And I've taken 18 showers just to pass the time   And that fucking phone just rang, but it wasn't you on the line   And you don't seem to mind      And we hung like space stations and rocketships   And dreamed like we were things of the sky   And we dressed like kings and queens and lovers   And shouted out into the night "we're never gonna die"      And it was New Year's Eve, but I was thinking of the summer   Knowing that at midnight you wouldn't be around   And they say children make the greatest soldiers   They do just like they're told, and take up less space on the line      But I'm not fighting a war   And it seems to me that we'd been here before      Where were you when I was at the airport   Where were you when I wanted to fly?   Tell me where you were when I was at the airport   These planes fall from the sky      And we hung like space stations and rocketships   And dreamed like we were things of the sky   And we dressed like kings and queens and lovers   And shouted out into the night "we're never gonna die"      And I wish I had an airport, somedays   'Cause some days are just so hard...
