Lyrics

I sneer at the sparrow
Singing at my window
Such a pretty little lucky thing
I sneer at the arrow of comparison
That's buried in my chest
Why did God forget to give me wings?
Why, why, why, why
Was this restless little soul within me made to fly?
Fly, fly, fly, fly
I long to glide across the rising sun
My eyes on fire
I have tendencies to only want
What I shouldn't desire
Oh, what I wouldn't give
To fly
Oh, to feel the sun's reflection in my eyes
As I rise
Oh, they tell me to get rid of it
'Cause risk is inconsiderate
Dear Icarus, you beautiful idiot
But oh, what I wouldn't give to try
To fly
Father says men like me and him
Shouldn't be caged in
So we will take the east wind and a map
To a place without a prison
A place where freedom's given
Where we won't be in the kitchen
Dipping feathers into wax
And he straps angel wings to my back
Saying, "So long as you stay far from the sun
My child, you'll fly
You have tendencies to want your fun
Your wild could be your demise"
Oh, what I wouldn't give
To fly
Oh, to feel the sun's reflection in my eyes
As I rise
Oh, they tell me to get rid of it
'Cause risk is inconsiderate
Dear Icarus, you beautiful idiot
But, oh, what I wouldn't give to try
To fly
Oh, I never could get rid of this
When Heaven looks so limitless
I'm Icarus, a beautiful idiot
Oh, my father, you are missing this
Let it melt your bitterness
I'm Icarus, a beautiful idiot
Oh, I cannot blame my ignorance
I'll blame the sun's deliverance
I'm Icarus, a beautiful idiot
Oh, I'm sorry I'm indifferent
To death and its relentlessness
If Icarus must die
He'll die a beautiful idiot
