Lyrics
Icarus
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I’ve been feeling low down lately
And I know that nothing can save me
From the world on my back
But these feathers and wax
And that’s a risk worth taking
Two feet on the ground
Ain’t no good for me now
Want to break out of my cage
And they’re gonna say
That I'm bound to crash down
Want to fly a little too high
Lose my way in a big sky
There are those that are afraid to fall
Then there’s the rest of us, oh
Just call me Icarus
I can’t stay between
The Sun and the sea
Oh, but I’d rather drown
Or keep my head in the clouds
Than to never feel free
Want to fly a little too high
Lose my way in a big sky
There are those that are afraid to fall
Then there’s the rest of us, oh
Just call me Icarus
Two feet on the ground
Ain’t no good for me now
Two feet on the ground
Ain’t no good for me
Want to fly a little too high
Lose my way in a big sky
There are those that are afraid to fall
Then there’s the rest of us, oh
Want to fly a little too high
Lose my way in a big sky
There are those that are afraid to fall
Then there’s the rest of us, oh
Just call me Icarus, oh
Just call me Icarus
