A Proper Icarus

Point to the sky with pain and pride The fear never shows behind those eyes You started a war, but still you soar Never to say that you fucked up before You never fucked up before A proper Icarus, you're too high To come off that horse that made you Given the world, but you wanted to fly So you took to the skies to see Warned of your fate Warned of your place Wasted away Makeshift dreams with wings to match A mother's love, a father's craft Hated the days That your old man would say "Boy, this won't go your way No, this won't go your way" Never could burn brighter than the sun A proper Icarus, you're too high To come off that horse that made you Given the world, but you wanted to fly So you took to the skies to see Warned of your fate Warned of your place Wasted away Melted down straight to the bone Underneath that's all you own How could it be? Out of humanity You were wasted on me You were wasted on me Never could burn brighter than the sun A proper Icarus, you're too high To come off that horse that made you Given the world, but you wanted to fly So you took to the skies to see Warned of your fate Warned of your place Wasted away Never could burn brighter than the sun How could you burn brighter than the sun? Never could burn brighter than the sun How could you burn brighter than the sun?
