Icarus

House of brick and mortar It's different when you're older The rust around your rain pipes Only makes me love you more I'm floating with no lifeline I'm stuck in shoes that aren't mine I wish I could just go back To how things were before Life in limbo I want to go back home Lost and low in this town I flew too high and fell down Now every day's the same shade Of a grey that doesn't cease This weary climb is not for me I want to go away and sleep And dream that I am somewhere safe Where I can be at peace Life in limbo I miss the simple things Maybe this is not for me Cause every day it's hard to see The part of me that wants to dream But I'm still here Maybe I should just go home Or maybe should I stay unknown Until I find a place to go I'll stay here Each days the same, only me, to blame The one that keeps me up at night, the one who's putting up a fight And I, don't know, how far, it goes And i don't see just where i stand, but how could anybody know I saw it online, just one week ago 10 tricks to be happy that you oughta know There's room for mistakes if you let yourself grow But someone forgot to tell me I should have known Maybe this is not for me I should have known Simple doesn't mean easy I should have known But at least it's worth a try I'm a fucking wreck, but I still got plenty of Time I used to spend my days in bed, tangled up in all my dread Had no handle on the weight, so worried I'd be stuck in place, But I don't need direction, to believe, oh no, That all the shame will pass me by, no use looking for a sign I took some time to believe That everyone fucks up, not only me I made my mistakes but now I can see I should have known Maybe this is not for me I should have known Simple doesn't mean easy I should have known But at least it's worth a try I'm a fucking wreck, but I still got plenty of Time I should have been more mindful of the choices that I make I should have taken chances instead of taking breaks I should have been more careful when it came to my own life I should have bought this jacket in a color that I like And all these thoughts are racing in my head, they never stop, And all these insecurities, I learned them on the job, But none of them can frighten me from flying to the sun, I'd rather crash and burn instead of sleeping when it's done And all these thoughts are racing in my head, they never stop And all these insecurities, I learned them on the job But none of them can frighten me from flying to the sun More Icarus than Sisyphus than everything is done All these thoughts, racing in my head, they never stop I learned them on the job But I'm not frightened, flying to the sun I'm not done, No I'm not done
