lyrics

Hang tight this flight ain't over
I can hardly say I know her
Find myself wasting the days
Thinking of that night at Kent State
That night we kissed in the dorm
The everlasting thunderstorm
That's when I fell in my pain
My wings rusted in the rain

We are Robotic Cardinals
Flying past this lonely place,
All I hear is the sound of your name
We are Robotic Cardinals
I fly past Coe Lake remembering
These things won't change

These things won't change

Down in the Grindstone City
The cold feels harsh and gritty
Snow is falling over Rocky River
Won't warm my heart unless I'm with her

We are Robotic Cardinals
Flying past this lonely place,
All I hear is the sound of your name
We are Robotic Cardinals
I fly past Coe Lake remembering
These things won't change

Are we lovers when love does not compute?
I've been texting my soul, my heart away to you
Someday I'll spread my wings over the Buckeye State
To fly away, these streets are cursed in your name
The story and the character of that day
Soaked in kerosene, and violently burned away
Hang tight this flight is crashing tonight
Red lights are flashing bright, I'm burning blue and white

Hang tight this flight ain't over

Hang tight this flight ain't over
I can hardly say I'm sober
Snow is falling over Rocky River
Tonight I drink to you and spoil my liver

We are Robotic Cardinals
Flying past this lonely place,
All I hear is the sound of your name
We are Robotic Cardinals
I fly past Coe Lake remembering
These things won't change

We are Robotic Cardinals
We are Robotic Cardinals
Over the state of Ohio
We are Robotic Cardinals
