Alexandria - Icarus Lyrics

Never used to light candles
It's been a long time since then
Got like twelve empty jars in my room, but I still prefer incense
Just needed the wax
Just needed something to stick
Just needed to feel you again, so I became Icarus
And he was happy, wasn't he?
Content with his makeshift wings
And shouldn't I be?
To have, to have lost
It's the curse for us all
And I'm burning
Reassuring myself that it's okay to fall
Admired you from afar
Couldn't help myself, just had to have a taste
And you were better than I could have believed
But you're gone and I feel misplaced
It's like I'm chasing something unattainable
Just looking for something to stick
Looking for the kind of love I had with you
So I became Icarus
And he was happy, wasn't he?
Content with his makeshift wings
And shouldn't I be?
To have, to have lost
It's the curse for us all
And I'm burning
Burning, burning
Sleepless nights spent crying
All the useless fighting
Would do it over again because nothing feels like flying
When it's burning, it burns so good
To have, to have lost
To grow accustomed to it all
I got too close to the sun, feel myself about to fall
And for the hope of it all
When it burns, I'll still have touched you
And you'll have touched me too
