Wings of Icarus

Engines ignited, roger control, hold on tight 'cos Here we go Here we go, we're outta control Earth spirals downwards, far, far below, the heaven's embrace us In it's silver glow, like mercury flow A Silver glow Stars are a snow storm on my video screen, a sparkling helix of Luminous green It's gotta be seen, do you know what I mean? CHORUS Icarus flew too near the sun, but the gods were against him, he was undone His waxed wings melted, his power had gone He might have survived If he'd had his spacesuit on Or stayed at home Guitar Solo Icarus flew too near the sun, but the gods were against him, he was undone His waxed wings melted, his power had gone He might have survived If he'd had his spacesuit on Or stayed at home Our ten year mission, to seek out and find, new planets to conquer We are man "kind"? We must be blind Don't know what we'll find Man is too greedy, wants it all for his own It won't be enough 'til space is his alone If only we'd known We're not alone In this spatial zone No, we're not alone In this spatial zone
