Why I Hate Flying

They never tell you that all is lost until two seconds after the oxygen mask drops

While you’re saving yourself before you help the screaming kids
You realize that no one is going to live

Rocks are harsh and the sea is cold
Plunging into nothing is only for the bold

Too bad you didn’t pay for a sky dive today

Some are hanging from parachutes just for fun
You’re praying to the lord that your life isn’t done

All the movies and shows so glamorous and clean
Have no idea what this moment really means

    Interesting. Are you really scared of flying? My mom always told me growing up, “The family that flies together dies together.” Yes I know it’s morbid, but it was actually always kind of comforting.

    I’m not really scared of flying actually. I do it all the time it’s just whenever there is turbulence i start thinking about how awful it would be to crash
