Testi

Icarus, you must have watched the skies

Over a thousand times

Icarus, why still expose your eyes

To what they'll never see, can never be

You won't get a better deal

Icarus, these wings are not for real

Was it me who said you'd never fall

If you could read the signs?

Icarus, I don't remember all

These worlds not meant to be, disarming me

So there's only one way out

Even though you'll never learn to live without

We've got no control, we're part of the plan

Lost in a maze and looking for answers

The gods play their game, concealing their hand

Building a strategy, taking their chances

They show you their schemes of promise and hope

Then they break down your dreams and hand you the rope

These are the lines, such are the rules

Stick to the road that you got to follow

Don't be misled by jokers and fools

Their image is false and their prophecies hollow

They poison the rains, polluting the sky

Now they lock you in chains and tell you to fly

Icarus, you have observed the stars

Until daylight dawned

Oh, Icarus, if we could reach as far

As half the universe, free as birds

But you won't make it on your own

No one safely makes that journey all alone

It's a perfect world but confusing my soul

There's no escape and no prospect of winning

Surrounded by walls and trapped in a hole

Where head is tail and the end's the beginning

They lie and they cheat, deny what you know

Only driven by greed

When you least expect it, they deal you the final blow

Things cannot be changed

Life can't be undone

You will fly too close to the sun

And lose it all, you're bound to fall again

Life can't be undone

You will fly too close to the sun

And lose it all, you're bound to fall

AgainIcarus why still expose your eyes

To what they'll never see

Can never be

You won't get a better deal

Icarus, these wings are not for real

Now you found the one way out

Can you tell me what it's really all about?

Things cannot be changed

Life can't be undone

You will fly too close to the sun

Like you did before

So will many more

Do in times to come

Icarus, this game simply can't be won
