"Icarus" lyrics

"Icarus"

I have died a million times
In the dark and in the night
And my ego put up a bloody fight
And in death I did arise
From the sky and from the sea
I was born into a different breed
Now I hunger, now I feed
Into the cosmos I will lead

Call me Icarus
I got too close to the sun
But I saw kingdom come
Now I know what must be done

Wake up
You gotta wake up
Wake up
You gotta wake up

What holds you down is this vessel
Made of so many things made of metal
Disconnecting becomes accidental
But it's familiar like fire to the devil

Journeyed to the shadowlands
Didn't think I'd make it back
Got a message, it can rescue us
Cause we're under attack
What we break, we can fix
When we hurt, we still dig
Not a curse, just a bridge
When we cry, we still live
We still live, we still breathe
Yeah you know what I mean
It's the truth, just believe
Cause we're onto bigger things
I'm transmitting with my wings
When I fly you will hear me
It's a different frequency
Gotta go blind just to see

Call me Icarus
I got too close to the sun
But I saw kingdom come
Now I know what must be done

Wake up
You gotta wake up
Wake up
You gotta wake up

Call me Icarus
I got too close to the sun
But I saw kingdom come
Now I know what must be done
