Icarus Songtext
von delving

I finally hit the spot where I am done with this
I am a barren branch, I′m a psychiatrist
I am a warning shot from an ancient myth
Only to be forgot, that's how I live like this

I met a charming thief and when I shook his hand
He saw the fire in me, I saw the smoke in him
He took the only thing, I ever wanted to be
But it was I who let him get so close to me


I used to whip my wrists with only wood and steel
Once I would wear my heart, I used to let it speak
I had a young man′s lungs and his foolish head
Now when I stand at all it is on beggar's legs

You are invincible until you hit that wall
Some will go all the way some never live at all
I cannot lie and say I've never prayed for death
But those were painful days, thought I had nothing left

So when I lift my arm and I extend my hand
I never once forget that this is who I am
No matter what is next to disappear from me
I am the love I want I am the love I receive


I finally hit the spot where I am done with this
I am a broken wing, I am Icarus
I am a warning shot from an ancient myth
Only to be forgot, that′s how I live like this
