Aerial

Sheets of golden velvet rain 
Lubricate my naked steel again 
Let the day go by far below 
Million miles of sky all I know 

Aerial powerglide 
Preparing to see her, I got to rise 
Now I'm touching myself, I'm painting my eyes 
Ain't it hard to rise 
When perception lies 

Let's stay up here, where we can see 
Let the day go by far below 
Million miles of sky all I know 
Aerial, jellyroll 

Let the day go by far below 
Million miles of sky all I know 
I got friends from other systems too 
They all need the same things you do 
Ain't it hard to rise 
When perception lies 

Let's stay up here, where we can see 
Let the day go by far below 
A million miles of sky all I know 
Let the day go by all that I know 
Aerial, jellyroll
