Lyrics Hayley Williams

Hayley Williams

Airplanes

Can we pretend that airplanes

In the night sky

Are like shooting stars

I could really use a wish right now

Wish right now, Wish right now

Can we pretend that airplanes

In the night sky

Are like shooting stars

I could really use a wish right now

Wish right now, Wish right now

Yeah

I could use a dream or a genie or a wish

To go back to a place much simpler than this

'Cause after all the partying

The smashing and crashing

And all the glitz and the glam and the fashion

And all the pandemonium and all the madness

There comes a time when you fade to the blackness

When you're staring at that phone in your lap

And hopin' but them people never call you back

But that's just how the story unfolds

You get another hand

Soon after you fold

And when your plans unravel in the sand

What would you wish for if you had one chance?

So airplanes airplanes

Sorry I'm late

I'm on my way

So don't close that gate

If I don't make that

Then I switch my flight

And I'll be right back at it

By the end of the night

Can we pretend that airplanes

In the night sky

Are like shooting stars

I could really use a wish right now

Wish right now, Wish right now

Can we pretend that airplanes

In the night sky

Are like shooting stars

I could really use a wish right now

Wish right now, Wish right now

Yeah

Yeah

Somebody take me back to the days

Before this was a job

Before I got paid

Before it ever mattered what I had in my bank

Yeah back when I was trying to get a tip at Subway

Back when I was rapping for the hell of it

But now days we rapping to stay relevant

I'm guessing that if we can make some wishes out of airplanes

Then maybe oh maybe I'll go back to the days

Before the politics that we call the rap game

And back when ain't nobody listened to my mixtape

And back before I tried to cover up my slang

But this is for decater

What's up Bobby Ray

So can I get a wish to end the politics

And get back to the music that started this shit

So here I stand

And then again i say

I'm hoping we can make some wishes out of airplanes

Can we pretend that airplanes

In the night sky

Are like shooting stars

I could really use a wish right now

Wish right now, Wish right now

Can we pretend that airplanes

In the night sky

Are like shooting stars

I could really use a wish right now

Wish right now, Wish right now
