icarus Lyrics

One day you slipped in to

A non chromatic state of being

Paled yourself and settled for

A grim and ugly world

You felt impressed by simple gestures

Though it hurt you never left her

Cause her colours kept your

World from being greyscale

Cause she burnt auburn like the fires

She set ablaze, but l require

An explanation on why you really stayed

Instead you bought a backyard castle

And you both played pretend

That she wasn't sneaking out

At midnight to meet another man

And you know

That you did

Everything that you could

But she took your wings and ran

Icarus

I'll catch you as you land

So you wandered aimlessly around

A world you knew nothing about

Skipped pebbles cause you didn't have the will

To lift the boulders

And maybe once you're older

You can try again, my friend

But until then you'll just be a silhouette

You might be lost but you

Can find yourself again

It's bittersweet every

New beginning

And you know

That you did

Everything that you could

But she took your wings and ran

Icarus

I'll catch you as you land

You gave him flight

Then tore him out of the sky

Why great designer why
