Icarus Ascending Songtext
von Domine

It started within, just a feeling inside
A hope in my heart I can no longer deny
To break away, break away, break away out of here
I′m a fool and a dreamer with no place to run
A man who's been hoping to touch the sun
And to set himself free, free

To reach for the eternal sky

Now I feel the urge to follow my dream
Forever free to spread my wings and fly
High into the sky

Fear I will fail and fall down to the ground
But my will to ride free through the oceans of clouds
Is stronger now, stronger now, stronger than ever before
I′ll be a symbol of warning, of ambition to rise
To fly beyond the light which is blinding my eyes
On strange wings I'll fly, I'll soar

On the wonderful wings of a dream


Never again to be bound by chains within cold walls
My decision is made and the time is now
A legend is born as the eyes of the world see

Icarus ascending
Icarus ascending
Icarus ascending to the sky

Icarus ascending
Icarus ascending
Icarus ascending to the sky

High into the sky

No one will ever stand in my way
No one will ever force me to stay
And I′ll fly away, fly away, fly far away from here

No one will ever stand in my way
No one will ever force me to stay
And I′ll fly away, fly away, fly far away from here

And I'll take a deep breath and I′ll close my eyes

My legend is born as the eyes of the world see

Icarus ascending
Icarus ascending
Icarus ascending to the sky


Icarus ascending
Icarus ascending
Icarus ascending to the sky

(Icarus ascending)
Icarus ascending to the sky

I've no place to live
I must transcend to the other side
My wings may be burned by the rays of the sun
But my body is falling, my spirit is rising high
High beyond the astral sky
Icarus is free
