Kill Devil Hills Lyrics

Blood brothers of angels, now hear us
We earthbound your offspring, don't fear us
God willing will rise up be near you
So open your arms now and take us

So we beleaving our dreams like the Icarus of old
The plans we made for the bold and the blue wide beyond
there's nowhere to hide, there's no going back now

As the wind wips over the hillside
Twenty knots over Kill Devil Hill
Steady wind blows over the sand
Twenty knots over Kill Devil Hill
As the breezed went straight as an arrow
It begun over Kill Devil Hill
Gasoline and the wind in the wires
Kill Devil Hill and the way to the sky

We stand on this seashore and wonder
What madness, what secrets we plunder
Our failure we run from discovery

The wreckage of heaven lies on your sand
First chance is abandoned
With woodstring and wire we can barly control her
Desire for destinys arrow

As the wind wips over the hillside
Twenty knots over Kill Devil Hill
Steady wind blows over the sand
Twenty knots over Kill Devil Hill
As the breezed went straight as an arrow
It begun over Kill Devil Hill
Gasoline and the wind in the wires
Kill Devil Hill and the way to the sky

Cover art for Kill Devil Hills lyrics by Bruce Dickinson

No comments here yet? Awesome song on a fantastic album. This meaning is simple...this is about the Wright Brothers and their efforts to create flight at Kill Devil Hills, NC. I like how there is a little bit of sci-fi feel to this album and Bruce and Roy stop to nod back to the beginning. No space flight or exploration without this moment in history.
