Learning not to die
Lyrics
Verse 1
Rivière stands beneath the night
Watching storms ignite like fires
Maps and signals on the wall
Knowing one mistake could kill them all
Night is crawling from the south
Cold commands fall from his mouth
Every silence hides a name
Every landing feeds the flame
Pre-Chorus
He carries every engine in his veins
Every pilot disappearing in the rain
Chorus
Fly through the dark
Into the storm
Hold to the line
No matter what comes
Steel in the heart
Fire in the sky
Men become shadows
Learning not to die
Verse 2
Buenos Aires glowing pale
Under clouds and distant hail
Coffee growing cold again
As he waits for missing men
He cannot bend
He cannot sleep
The night is vast
The dead run deep
Bridge

"...Patagonia route unstable..."
"...visibility collapsing..."
"...requesting coordinates..."
"...tell Rivière we continue north..."

Chorus
Fly through the dark
Into the storm
Hold to the line
No matter what comes
Steel in the heart
Fire in the sky
Men become legends
The moment they rise
Progressive Psychedelic Outro
Signals drift like fading stars
Engines hum beyond the dark
Rivière watches from below
Where only sleepless leaders go
Church bells ring across the haze
Aircraft vanish into rain
Ghosts of pilots cross the sky
Still learning how to fly
