lyrics

ICARUS

I want to leave this maze
I want my foggy days to end
Hope I can start a trend

I need my life to change
I need to rearrange again
Make it around the bend
Do what I intend

When all is said and all is done
My wings of wax melt in the sun
Our fathers built this maze we’re in
Can’t let the monster inside win

[chorus]
Nightmares and dreams
Of low self esteem
Wake up and scream!

Tributes and fines
At government shrines
Squandering time!

A mess of lies or simple truth
Conflicted lessons in our youth
We can’t tell which until we’re grown
And so we live just skin and bone

Some of us run away
Some of us walk astray and fall
Others break down the walls

Don’t give your soul away
No need for sad cliches at all
The monsters are all banal

The minotaurs simply die
But labyrinths will endure for years
Guiding threads disappear

Sever the corporate ties
Ignore the designer lies you hear
So the way out is clear

I’m gonna leave this maze
Time for my foggy days to end - I’m gonna start a trend

I know my life will change
I know I’ll rearrange again - make it around the bend
