Lyrics

ICARUS

Are we holding out or just holding on
Holding on to hope so vague
Is realizing a dream impossible
Waking up in shades of gray
Watch me now, spreading wings so I can fall
Icarus, I?m melting, but there?s no sun involved.
As I fall down I want you to know I would?ve flown higher
And as I drown, this legend will show, I could?ve flown higher

This ground is beaten or is that just me.
Sometimes they both can feel the same
I?ve tried to ?soar?, that?s how I end up, meaning it a different way.
Watch me now, spreading wings so I can fall
Icarus, I?m melting, but there?s no sun involved.
This wax is wearing on my back.
I can?t keep molding into that
This wax is wearing on my back.
I can?t keep molding into that
As I fall down I want you to know I would?ve flown higher
And as I drown, this legend will show, I could?ve flown higher

I have let you down.
I guess that you were right, I should have taken your advice, you said
?don?t fly close to the sun?, or was it ?son, don?t fly?
(is your hand there to help me up or hold me down, you can have it back to (spite you))

As I fall down I want you to know I would?ve flown higher
And as I drown, this legend will show, I could?ve flown higher
As I fall down I want you to know I would?ve flown higher
And as I drown, this legend will show, I could?ve flown higher
