Icarus

Standing on your platform Preaching havoc in a storm The rain came down You closed your mouth You're not smiling anymore Spread your wings in the sky With feathers made of wax They melt away Erased from time Dripping down your back You scream while you're falling You didn't get what you wanted The path you traveled felt impossible You scream while you're falling You know he heard his father speak Of stubbornness and pride He said not too High or low Fly in a straight line He flew above the water He flew away from his father Well that's when Icarus said"I'm sick of this" He flew into the sun He may have flown too high But at least he had a chance to taste the sky His choice had consequences But at least he had the chance to feel alive You scream while you're falling You didn't get what you wanted The path you traveled felt impossible You scream while you're falling
