Icarus

Like a plane, i'm high up
Watch me go higher
I'm sitting high up on a wire
Here i come your way, why oh why?
Eyes see it, wide open
They're sparkling like gold.
Hear you calling, oh ayyy
Oh for you i'm getting close
Higher oh ayy oh
Higher oh ayy oh
I'm sitting high up on a wire
Here i come your way, why oh why?
Go to flame, if they will (hold me?)
Everything that may (have?)
Oh lure me down, scold me
I want all that i can take.
High up ohhh
High up ohhh
I'm sitting high up on a wire
Here i come your way, why oh why?
