Cover art for The Secret of Flight	 lyrics by Saxon

This track delves into humanity's fascination and quest to understand the ability to fly, drawing inspiration from various historical figures and moments that symbolize our pursuit. It poetically explores humanity's innate desire for exploration, innovation, and our longing to conquer the skies. The characters in question are the mythological character of Icarus who flew too close to the sun, the renowned artist and inventor DaVinci, the Wright brothers who successfully built and launched the first manned aircraft, and Einstein whose theory of relativity broke new ground in understanding the physics behind flight.
