lyrics

Let’s build a plane out of styrofoam and cellophane and whatever’s left behind the shed. Let’s cut across the Atlantic where we’ll both live off of strange love with strangers. Packed to the roof with our plastic guns and hiking boots and we’ve left no room for parachutes. This gasoline is enough to only get us to strange love with strangers. God save us from this love. Let’s build a plane out of styrofoam and cellophane and the scraps our parents threw away. Let’s cut across the Atlantic where we’ll both live off of strange love with strangers. There’s nothing here to keep me from this strange love of danger, and if this plane goes down then we all go down. And then we all go down. Love. No parachutes. So, let’s get this right (See you on the other side) If we get this right (See you on the other side) Or if we all go down (See you on the other side) If we get this right (See you on the other side). Or if we drown I’ll see you on the other side. I’ll see you on the other side.

On Circles
by Caspian

supported by 11 fans who also own “No Parachutes”

Sometimes, I find my listening to Post-Rock that is overly depressing sounding, and its good to balance that out with records that are more "lighter" sounding. It just lifts me up so much! I love how hopeful this record feels to me. veritas_seeker

You and I
by OBROTHER

supported by 11 fans who also own “No Parachutes”

A darker and more expansive album for an already dark and expansive band. You & I is the aural equivalent of moving through the depths of an empty forest at midnight thrownofan

Why Aren't I Home?
by Athletics

supported by 9 fans who also own “No Parachutes”

Athletics shaped the emotional yet contemplative emo-influenced post-rock songs, either to cure or to tear off mentality—depends on the listener's. My favourites: "Why Aren't I Home", "Fairview", "Affliction", and "Why Aren't I Home (Orchestral Mix)". Thank you so much! use2alone
