Cold blue metal in a frozen sky
Watching all the heavy clouds drift by
Sipping on the static of the air
Hanging in a void beyond compare
Starlight hitting on my solar skin
Waiting for the engine heat to begin
Floating in a sea of velvet black
Looking for a way to lead me back
Copper wires humming in the deep
While the weary pilots fall asleep
Satin finish on a wing of grey
Counting every single mile away
Digital horizon painted white
Cutting through the middle of the night
Oxygen is pumping through the vein
Sensing every flicker of the strain
Starlight hitting on my solar skin
Waiting for the engine heat to begin
Floating in a sea of velvet black
Looking for a way to lead me back
I am just a shell of polished chrome
A thousand leagues away from any home
Screaming through the vacuum and the glare
Searching for a breath of summer air
Sinking through the layers of the haze
Lost inside a mathematical maze
Gleaming like a coin inside a well
Trapped inside a high-tech metal shell
Starlight hitting on my solar skin
Waiting for the engine heat to begin
Floating in a sea of velvet black
Looking for a way to lead me back
Lead me back to the ground
Lead me back to the sound
Glass and gold!
