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 was reaching for heaven

It became my obsession

But I guess it was more like a curse and less like a blessin'

And it was perfect on paper

But there weren't any layers

And how can a kiss of an angel feel more like a stranger?

I try to take it all away

Take it all away

But it all went up in flames

And I fell hard like

Icarus

I got to close to your heart and now I've turned to dust

I didn't know that your love could be so dangerous

And all your golden promises they just turn to rust

And I got burned like icarus

I got burned by your love

Stop what you're sayin'

I'm done with the stayin'

You're not gonna pull me in

I'm finally awaken

I finally see you for who you are

And not the person I thought you were

And maybe you just drop things to watch how they're breakin'

I try to take it all away

Take it all away

But it all went up in flames

And I fell hard like

Icarus

I got to close to your heart and now I've turned to dust

I didn't know that your love could be so dangerous

And all your golden promises they just turn to rust

And I got burned like icarus

Gotta let go, gotta let go

Gonna wash the poison off of me, oh oh

I'ma let go, I'ma let go

Watch me as I'm flyin' away from your love

Mmm, flyin' away from your love

Like Icarus

I got to close to your heart and now I've turned to dust

I didn't know that your love could be so dangerous

And all your golden promises they just turn to rust

And I got burned like Icarus

I got burned by your love

Burned like Icarus

I got burned by your love

And I got burned like Icarus
