“Flyover Country” lyrics

Wasted on these words spitting out

Cause it's too cold wandering through the woods now

Second hand is moving slower still

Sparks fly even though there's no flint here

If we had coals our feast could fix the fasting fire

But my eyes spill on the mound we dug, we dug

We're in flyover country

Only when we talk about it

Only when we talk about it

Take your seatbelt off, this could take a while

I've never won a fight like this

Fields fall in love with fireflies

Makes me think there's hope

Elusive, gone, into the dark

Catch a few, please just a few

Fly slow take the scene in

Don't want to get there too soon

While we're here at least we are still fighting

Fighting for us, for us

We're in flyover country

Only when we talk about it

Only when we talk about it

Take your seatbelt off, this could take a while

I've never won a fight like this

Seems like we can't land here

There's no dead end, the highways clear

The thunder won't let us walk

The clouds are gone the puddles dry

I've never won a fight like this

Why is it so silent?
