Golden Boy

You were the sun in my sky Your love gave me light You were the golden boy I was your Icarus Flying too close to your rays Feeling my wings melt away And I went down down down Into the depths of the ocean Falling from grace Your words traced fine lines Around my heart So much so that when you left The lines turned to cracks And my heart broke apart How can I stand When my legs are full of tears and sand You were the sun in my sky Your love gave me light You were the golden boy I was your Icarus Flying too close to your rays Feeling my wings melt away And I went down down down Into the depths of the ocean Falling from grace Will I ever be free of The sunburn memories that you gave me Maybe next time I'll put up a shield so the light won't get in How can I laugh When I cry if I see your photograph You were the sun in my sky Your love gave me light You were the golden boy I was your Icarus Flying too close to your rays Feeling my wings melt away And I went down down down Into the depths of the ocean Falling from grace I bet years from now these scars will fade away And I'll think of you with a smile on my face Then I'll stand and laugh and dance and sing And tell everyone my story of how You were the sun in my sky Your love gave me light You were the golden boy I was your Icarus Flying too close to your rays Feeling my wings melt away And I went down down down Down down down Down down down Into the depths of the ocean Falling from grace
