I think this song and Icarus II are two parts of a story. The definition of borne is technically not birth, but being concieved by other means. He was not literally borne of wings of steel, but he feels that way because flying makes him feel so free. Obviously, if he were flying and lost his wings, he'd die, but in another sense, if he lost his plane or means of flying, he'd die of the feeling of being lost. Icarus II Is where he is drafted into the airforce to fight in a war. He wishes he were back home, but cant go back, because he must focus on his task that was set for him. He ends up getting shot down while trying to help his friends escape. He sacrifices himself for them.
This also could be referring to God, who lives in Heaven. God is higher than anyone on Earth. But in Icarus II, Jesus is sent to the Earth to save people from their sins by sacrificing himself for them. The enemy planes could be sin, and the friends going down in flames could be his disciple who lose faith and fall away. Listen to the two song in a row again, and youll catch my drift.
I think the religeon bit is a bit on the edge of likelihood, not that im anti religeon, but I think that Icarus and Icarus II are sister songs, they are both interesting and great songs. In Icarus II he is a bomber pilot, he is fed up with war and does some deep thinking, he wonders if the enemy is not actually much different than himself. When he does get shot down, he tries to keep the plane from crashing long enough for his crew to bail.
