David McClatchey - Glass Airplanes Lyrics

This isn't the first time
That you climbed that mountain side
But it's the first time
That you said it would be easy
With your eyes fixed on the top
It was like you were already there
Lost your first step, slipping off the bedrock
Crying on your back, you looked up in the air

Glass airplanes
Flying up so high
Glass airplanes
Shooting jets of golden pride
Glass airplanes
Flying up so high
Always getting shattered by the sky

Is there anything
Where you don't think you're the king
You walk around
Like you got a million crowns
But one day you just might find
The world champ of eating humble pie
And maybe you'll see
That you're not the king
Of damn near anything

Glass airplanes
Flying up so high
Glass airplanes
Shooting jets of golden pride
Glass airplanes
Flying up so high
Always getting shattered by the sky

You look down on the world
When you're up that high
Some part of you knows
That it won't last
It only gets harder and harder to fly
You never stood a chance
In your airplane made of glass

Glass airplanes
Flying up so high
Glass airplanes
Shooting jets of golden pride
Glass airplanes
Flying up so high
Always getting shattered by the sky

Glass airplanes
Flying up so high
Glass airplanes
Shooting jets of golden pride
Glass airplanes
Flying up so high
Always getting shattered by the sky

Glass airplanes
Glass airplanes
Glass airplanes
Glass airplanes
