Artist/Band:
System of a Down
Lyrics for Song: Aerials
Lyrics for Album: Toxicity [2001]
Life is a waterfall,
We're one in the river,
And one again after the fall.
Swimming through the void
We hear the word,
We lose ourselves,
But we find it all
Cause we are the ones that want to play,
Always want to go,
But you never want to stay,
And we are the ones that want to choose,
Always want to play,
But you never want to lose.
Aerials, in the sky,
When you lose small mind,
You free your life.
Life is a waterfall,
We drink from the river,
Then we turn around and put up our walls.
Swimming through the void
We hear the word,
We lose ourselves,
But we find it all
Cause we are the ones that want to play,
Always want to go,
But you never want to stay,
And we are the ones that want to choose,
Always want to play,
But you never want to lose,
ohhh
Aerials, in the sky,
When you lose small mind,
You free your life.
Aerials, so up high,
When you free your eyes,
Eternal prize.
Aerials, in the sky,
When you lose small mind,
You free your life.
Aerials, so up high,
When you free your eyes,
Eternal prize.

Aerials
Released in 2001 on the album Toxicity, "Aerials" stands as a defining track in the discography of System of a Down. The song exemplifies the band's signature blend of heavy metal and alternative rock, characterized by Serj Tankian's distinctive vocal delivery and the group's complex, layered instrumentation. As a key component of their major-label debut, the recording captures the band's evolution from their earlier punk-influenced sound to a more polished, theatrical style that would define their career. The track remains a staple of their live performances and has become an enduring anthem within the nu-metal genre, reflecting the band's ability to fuse aggressive riffs with melodic hooks. |
