Icarus
Lyrics
You got your eyes closed
Such a temper
Been so long that
You can't remember
How it started
How they took you down
You got your wings up
Now they're laughing
You're the food at the feast
That they're having
And you know running away
Doesn't prove them wrong
Well have you tried apologising?
Do you know the mess you've made?
You believe you hold the answers
But your feathers are all frayed
Oh well, Icarus, Icarus
Why you so serious, serious?
You know you gotta let it go
Cos you're flying too close
There in your ego
Lies your weakness
Wrap it tightly
And keep it at your chest
You are only
The front that you harness
Cos silence is so underrated
Their voices are a loaded gun
You'll be swallowed up by the sun
Cos you're trying to be someone
Oh well, Icarus, Icarus
Why you so serious, serious?
You know you gotta let it go
Cos you're flying too close
Oh well, Icarus, Icarus
You're being so dangerous, dangerous
You know the higher you fly
The less you can hide
Cos they're all waiting in the ocean
With open arms to drag you down
So have you tried apologising
Before you start to drown?
Oh well, Icarus, Icarus
Why you so serious, serious?
You know you gotta let it go
Cos you're flying too close
Oh well, Icarus, Icarus
You're being so dangerous, dangerous
You know the higher you fly
The less you can hide
