[underlined]THE PILOTS[/underlined]
We are unafraid
Although death rides
The skies with us,
He is our friend
He leads us by the hand
To unknown places,
He has taken our friends
And will return for us.
We jest with death
And talk of
“Pushing up the daisies”
We who are young
Would like to be free
With Life as our friend
Not Death.
We are unafraid

The skies with us,
He is our friend
He leads us by the hand
To unknown places,
He has taken our friends
And will return for us.
We jest with death
And talk of
“Pushing up the daisies”
We who are young
Would like to be free
With Life as our friend
Not Death.
