Name: Dead Pilots
Duration: P00H02M39S
Description: Just following orders? ‘Dead Pilots,’ came from reading about a thing in flight dynamics referred to as the coffin corner. When you’re high enough, the air is so thin that an aircraft’s stall speed matches its maximum airspeed. If you get there, it’s all over. Could be the better option...

lyrics

here in a place of unspeakable grace
it’s down to me could I pull back and brace
when I am told - down to me
could i choose to betray the human race
dead pilot— do not follow!

siege dreams complete my mission
take care, we’re all so proud
sent home in red dementia
We vitrified the ground

this is a place of unspeakable grace
it’s down to me could I pull back and brace
when I am told - down to me
but i wold not betray the human race
dead pilot— do not follow!

we’d breach the deep unseeming
that aerotoxic cloud
blanked eyes in exaltation
the pressure hull bleeds out
that’s me

Whoa, whoa

Dead pilot do not follow
Dead pilot do not follow
Dead pilot do not follow
Dead pilots do not follow

jet takes me up
and that was something i would never do to you
You’ve got me stuck in the dark machine
and then the flight controls lock
mach stall shockwaves in a dream

The more I listen to this the more trouble I have choosing favorite track. I also still think this is witchhouse. Also I think your cover art is incredibly good. But I don't think it is best of your art anymore. I'll switch to Crush for a moment. jesu82
