Asperitas Lyrics

We crafted perfect wings

But fine feathers don't make fine birds

We patent perfect machines

But fine blueprints don't make gears turn

Fine sails don't mean you won't be tossed by the waves

Still no oceans will go uncrossed by our wake

And if the trees were meant to be our ceiling

Then how come the stars are all that I'm seeing?

I will meet you there

Above the clouds

In weightless silver air

Impulse interruption

If gravity allows

I'll wait for you there

Above the clouds

A constant reach in err

For alternate propulsion

Without bounds

It feels like we're flying

Centuries in orbit

But now it's failing

Our souls lay dormant

But we're finally waking

So hold up the sky while you beg for the ground to save you

And take me in downward flight

Within the gravity that enslaves you

I will meet you there

Above the clouds

In weightless silver air

Impulse interruption

If gravity allows

I'll wait for you there

Above the clouds

A constant reach in err

For alternate propulsion

Without bounds

Cliffs of light leap to the sky

And it feels like we're flying

With hopes that fell from out of space

We're dropping our anchors in dried out seas

Cliffs of light leap to the sky

And it feels like we're flying

With hopes that fell from out of space

We're dropping our anchors

Into dried out seas

And it feels like we're flying

Now that we're truly living, not merely surviving

Now that we're truly living, not merely surviving
