It's people scattered on the floor
Cool war kids are running out of time
It's such a shame to see
It's such a shame to feel this way

The sun comes streaming through the clouds
Dust and dirt are settled all around
But I hear the same old words
And I see the same old warning sky

We're out of luck this time
We've fallen apart
We're out of luck this time

Tears are rolling down my face
Feeds the fear that's running through the stream
And, oh, I just wanna feel
But I don't wanna feel this way

We're out of luck this time
We've fallen apart
We're out of luck this time

No more running away
No more running away
No more running away
No more running away

No more running away
No more running away
No more running away

No more running away
No more running away
No more running away
No more running away
(We've fallen apart)

(No more running away, no more running away)
We're out of luck this time
We've fallen apart
(We've fallen apart)
'Cause we're out of luck this time
(No more running away, no more running away)

Air Traffic

Air Traffic are an English alternative rock band from Bournemouth. Formed in 2003, the band consists of Chris Wall (piano, lead vocals), David Ryan Jordan (Drums), Tom Pritchard (guitar) and Jim Maddock (bass guitar). The band's name originated from when they used to rehearse in an industrial unit next to Hurn Airport, where air traffic control signals could be picked up on their amplifiers. Their music features heavy use of piano, and they have been described by NME to be like "Supergrass covering Little Richard". The band have received minor success with the release of their single "Shooting Star", which debuted at No. 30 in the UK singles chart, and the release of their debut album, Fractured Life. more »
