National Anthem - Belmont Volleyball 10.15.21

Plane Stranger
Written by Avery Goodwin, Aubrey Mullaney, Arianna Pappas, Christina Young
Sung by Avery Goodwin

(Verse 1)
I’m going back into the sky today
And there is some guy ticked at TSA
I’m looking for a vacation in my mind

Today’s home sweet home’s gate 24
Me and the bride tribe, ready to board
I’m looking for a stranger to pass the time

(Pre-Chorus)
Eye to eye across the aisle
I found my daydream for a while

(Chorus)
Cause in my mind, we’re going to Spain
Saying “I do”, kissing in the rain
Jetting off to Mexico and making love all night
Baby me and you, we got a real good life
Cause in my mind, the/our honeymoon’s in May
And in one year, we’ll have a kid on the way
Baby here up in the sky, I’ll be your JetBlue wife
Hey plane stranger, it’s been a real good life
It’s been a real good life

(Verse 2)
I've got 2 hours to kill the time
I know way too much about this chick behind
And the kid kicking my seat is pissing me off

I see you ‘out the corner of my eye
Don’t worry, I won’t ever say hi
I’ll lean back and distract ‘til my next stop

(Chorus)
Cause in my mind, we’re going to Spain
Saying “I do”, kissing in the rain
Jetting off to Mexico and making love all night
Baby me and you, we got a real good life 
Cause in my mind, the honeymoon’s in May
And in one year, we’ll have a kid on the way
Baby here up in the sky, I’ll be your JetBlue wife
Hey plane stranger, it’s been a real good life
It’s been a real good life

(Verse 5/Bridge)
I’m camping out in baggage claim
I swore I heard you say my name
But I think I drank too much on that flight

(Chorus)
Cause in my mind, we’re (still) going to Spain
Saying “I do”, kissing in the rain
Jetting off to Mexico and making love all night
Baby me and you, we got a real good life 
Cause in my mind, the/our honeymoon’s in May
And in one year, we’ll have a kid on the way
Baby here up in the sky, I’ll be your JetBlue wife
Hey plane stranger, it’s been a real good life
It’s been a real good life

In The Grave
Written by Maura Streppa, Arianna Pappas, Lisa Weatherall
Sung by Maura Streppa

(Verse 1)
Well this home ain’t a house
Until you let all the spirits out
But I'm caught in this chase
And I’ll never leave this place

(Pre-Chorus)
Skeletons are stuck in the closet
Voices screaming “Baby you’ve lost it”
You've got the key but you locked yourself in
Now it's my turn to tell you where I've been

(Chorus)
OooOOOooOOooOOOooOOoo
Spell it out in blood
OooOOOooOOooOOOooOOoo
“You better run”
Cause one foot in is too late
The other one’s already in the grave

(Verse 2)
If these walls could talk
Boy, I bet they’d scare you off
In the attic footsteps running
The devil only knows what you’ve got coming

(Pre-Chorus)
Eyes watching you through the canvas
But try to not misunderstand us
We’ve been stuck for centuries on end
You don’t wanna know the places we’ve been

(Chorus)
OooOOOooOOooOOOooOOoo
Spell it out in blood
OooOOOooOOooOOOooOOoo
“You better run”
Cause one foot in is too late
The other one’s already in the grave

(Bridge)
White pickett fences, manicured lawn
All the things to make this house a home
But replace it with thorns
Cuz flowers round here don’t live very long

(“doomed soul”)

(Chorus)
OooOOOooOOooOOOooOOoo
Spell it out in blood
OooOOOooOOooOOOooOOoo
“You better run”
Cause one foot in is too late
The other one’s already in the grave

Space

Every Mile
Written by Arianna Pappas and Meagan Irby

You grew up on the wrong side of town
My Daddy doesn’t like you comin’ around
But you make my heart beat faster than the speed of sound
Somehow I knew you’d turn me wild
Your flair was fuel to my desire
And then I found a freedom in your wicked fire

So what do you say, we could just get away
Hit the road and make our great escape
Let logic rush right out the window babe
Go it freestyle, make our time worthwhile
Don’t need a thing if I’ve got your smile
Promise you boy, I’ll love you every mile

At midnight, the clock strikes “trouble time”
We blow through every coastal sign
With you I’d stay sixteen for all my life
And they all say we’ve lost our heads
Daredevil ourselves to the edge
Hop the fence, no regrets, live the life we’ve dreamt

(Repeat Chorus)

You’re the crazy to my play-it-safe
Won’t you be my best mistake?
Let’s chase our fate
You’re the rustic to my silver shine
Won’t you be my best surprise?
Let’s jump in blind

So what do you say, we could just get away
Hit the road and make our great escape
Let logic rush right out the window babe
Go it freestyle, make our time worthwhile
I see forever in your fearless smile
Promise me boy, you’ll love me every mile
