New Icarus

Every night I sit and wonder Am I lightning without thunder Am I alone up in these northern skies And when its time to think about you I fall right through the clouds and My mind begins to come to life As I fall, I see the Angels look at me With such disgrace As if I had found out a way To hide from God without a trace If only you could see the ways My mind could change within a day I'd electrify the world Defibrillate the skies today Come and ask me how I know This is how its meant to go To spend my life now in a storm As if I had been just reborn And to this day I don't know why I always flinch before I fly That awkwardness has led me here A sea of things that disappear As I fall, I see the Angels look at me With such disgrace As if I had found out a way To hide from God without a trace If only you could see the ways My mind could change within a day I'd electrify the world Defibrillate the skies today I clench my hands As I fall from the sun Without wings And empty lungs I float and wait and see And brace for the fall But when you're Icarus You see no ocean at all I see no ocean at all
