Point Her To The Sky

[Verse 1] They were a couple of guys Who wanted to have some fun Taking it to the limit Forty-one ten and done [Verse 2] Climb at 22 degrees Fighter angle of attack Happy as hell to get there They don't know they won't come back [Chorus] Point her to the sky, see what she does You never know if you don't try Point her to the sky, see how she goes It's a very good day to die [Verse 3] They reached the ceiling fast They did what they set out to do And as the engines powered down They didn't know they were through [Verse 4] They couldn't admit their wrongs They lied to save each other's skin They wouldn't tell ATC About the danger they were in [Chorus] Point her to the sky, see what she does You never know if you don't try Point her to the sky, see how she goes It's a very good day to die [Short Instrumental Break] [Bridge] Let's have a soda and celebrate Sitting on top of the world Bragging rights for the rest of our lives Sitting on top of the world [Verse 4] The engines would not relight There was no place to go but down They got it to where they wanted But they spent too much time messing around [Verse 5] There was a highway below them But it was just too far to glide They made it to the Four Ten Club But when they came back down, they died [Chorus] Point her to the sky, see what she does You never know if you don't try Point her to the sky, see how she goes It's a very good day to die [End] ~ inspired by the events leading to the crash of Pinnacle 3701 ~
