Aileron Lyrics

Goodbye, Salt Lake
My late afternoon flight
I'll take these wings
Because I don't have my own
But if I did, they'd be even more weathered than these
And I couldn't get home
No, I wouldn't go home
From way up here, I'm unknowingly looking at you
And I wonder if we're similar enough that you feel it
Up here it's just empty space
And the cold thin air
And I wonder if there's really that much more for me down there
Aileron, my enemy
Just this once, let my plane not go down
For as many times as I've begged you to fail this time
I've gotta get back alive to live and hear her voice again
God keep us safe
Or turn us around and crash in the lake where I woke up today feeling so great
