“Airplanes” – B.o.B
Stars don’t fly tonight,
Can’t help win my fight.
Wishing on a star for hope.
Instead I find I’m caught,
‘Neath black sky, dreams rot.
With airplanes, I cope.
Dreaming on airplanes,
Drive myself insane.
I only wanted hopes for real.
I only wanted aid,
Encourage me, don’t blame.
Airplane shooting star; dream seal.
Such a black starless —
Night with dreams a mess.
I can’t wish for dreams,
Have to fight their sheen.
Lights promising everything.
When truly, they give nothing.
I’m glad I only see —
Airplanes, I’m not on —
A flight, soaring into night.
Shooting stars they crash.
Airplanes fall; they crash,
Taking humans who lose sight.
Never do I want,
Plans to crash –to haunt.
I’m afraid, like stars, they are —
Become black holes that —
Are vacuums, no switch,
For off; destroy life too fast –far.
Find a star, wish long,
And wish hard, there is —
Hope in the distance calling,
Like the promise of lights —
Leading us with foresight.
Wishing star work, stop falling.
