Icarus

See through the smoke

Just a card in play that she wrote my name on

Breathing in the cold

How could she throw me away? At least wait 'til I have wings on

You know, I kissed her once and she smiled

She'll never see the boy falling out of the sky

It took me all I had to turn away from this one

Thought I'd take my chances, I was blinded, I was young

But then all at once, I was back to where I begun

I was burned by the morning, I got too close to the sun

She said, "Your feathers fit just right

You're a fool, you're a climber, you should've called it a night"

Well, it turns out (it turns out), I turned out fine (turned out fine)

So better luck next time, I'm Icarus ascending

You know, I kissed her once and she smiled

She'll never see the boy falling out of the sky

It took me all I had to turn away from this one

Thought I'd take my chances, I was blinded, I was young

But then all at once, I was back to where I begun

I was burned by the morning, I got too close to the sun

She'll never know I was falling, falling, oh

I got too close to the sun

It took me all I had to turn away from this one

Thought I'd take my chances, I was blinded, I was in love

But then all at once, I was back to where I begun

I was burned by the morning, I got too close to the sun

I got too close to the sun
