Icarus

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Sweet nothings in one ear and out the other So long I lived in fear of getting closer to you And relying on your praise Though it's diluting with the days That passes by To remind myself I still know how to fly [Chorus] It gets hard to breathe And I can't believe I'm worth anything at all And if these fragile wings can carry me along up to the sun Can I bear the weight of the fall back down to you? [Drop] [Verse 2] I wake up so convinced the tap's stopped flowing Got this incessant need to keep on showing I'm fine, so I drain the river dry Impressing a hundred thousand eyes A sacrifice to remind myself I still know how to fly [Instrumental Break] [Chorus] And if these fragile wings can carry me along up to the sun Can I bear the weight of the fall back down to you? [Outro] (Can I bear the weight of the fall?)
