Treistemm - Icarus Lyrics




Boys dont like to cry, they like to fly to the clouds
But I never figured how, because my wings fell out
Noise is bound to die if you act deaf when your loud
Try to figure yourself out, and you are bound to feel down

Don't you fly close to the sun
Cause if you fall and crash, I will have no one
I've lent you my broken wings
Now show this table what you bring

I know the wings don't work for me
That doesn't mean that they came free
There is a difference
You are my Icarus, my Icarus

Im not a winning type of guy, I'm a spinning butterfly
That got lost up in the stars, being proud of all the scars
Im a dimming firefly, like a chimney with no fire
Think the light burnt out, turned out, no power
Like a city in the sky, gazing upon all your eyes
I think your scars are really pretty, can I have the time?
Tumbling through solar systems, got a fistful of a blissful feeling that you gave me when I first saw you try to fly

Don't you fly close to the sun
Cause if you fall and crash, I will have no one
I've lent you my broken wings
Show this table what you bring

I know the wings don't work for me
That doesn't mean that they came free
There is a difference
You are my Icarus
You are my Icarus

Now, I'm flying in the sun
I see the light, and see no time for no one
I see my wings that fell out
I'm told it's just fate, but I have my doubts

Talking 'bout friends in the past tense
Haven't done the math since
Talking bout family in the past tense
Knowing you live in glass tents
We see right through the facade, I ain't gon' lie about it
Flap your wings son, I know you cannot fly without it
Bang the steel drum, maybe someone will hear the protest
I got a green thumb from my own damn erosion
I put myself to focus, and then I zone out
I see my mama in the bleachers, make my dad proud
If my album never sells them were words even a shout?
It's just a molecule of feelings that I'll never figure out

I see the light and my life flashes in my eyes
I'm crying at my funeral, and I don't know how to rewind
As the grim reaper looks at my life

If I can't even save Icarus, then how the hell am I alive?
Im alive, I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive
But I'm tired of reminders of the past tense of my life
Now it's here, the light is close, I don't think it can get more bright.
And it's here
My mistakes have arrived
I thank you for the time
The sun sets in the night
But I know that I'm alive
