It happened then, it happens now
They let you in, they let you down
And it feels like we can't get out
And it feels like hell

I think I'm safer in an airplane
I think I'm safer if my lungs filled up smoke
I think I'm safer on a jet-way
Than a world without hope

The day came in, the day went out
And not a bit of peace was spoken about
And it feels like a suicidal world
And it feels like hell

I think I'm safer in an airplane
I think I'm safer if I run the streets
I think I'm safer on a jet-way
Than a world without peace

Oh, what arms will stretch out when they've had enough?
Oh, when they are tired, folding up on us...

I think I'm safer on an airplane
(I think
I think I'm safer in the sky up above
I think I'm safer on the jet-way
Than a world without...

I think I'm safer on an airplane
(I think I'm safer on an airplane)
I think I'm safer in the sky up above
I think I'm safer on the jet-way
Than a world without love
