Turbulence - Arab Strap

You always jump and quiver

when you’re coming in to land

with no runway, no guidance

no nails dug into my hand.

We could have whoever we want.

We could go back to school

and see the dead laugh again.

Let’s get dressed up and pull.

The only benefit of drinking.

The downside of what we take.

Some weekends I feel

like I could always be awake.

A party in a strangers house.

Have we ever met the host?

Just smile and keep talking

and get your can for a toast.

We won’t always be safe here

but this is where we reign.

Pull it tight to protect us.

We might never sleep again.
