The K's & Tony Walsh Lyrics

"Icarus (with Tony Walsh Intro)"

Some bands have got the lyrics
Some bands have got the tunes
Some bands have got the spirits and some bands have got the moves
Some bands have got desire and some bands have got the look
Some bands can start a fire and some bands are cool as fuck
Some bands can blow the roof off and some bands show love and pride
And some bands just know the truth of all our joy and pain inside

Some bands have got the passion and some bands have got the balls
Some bands have songs that matter when you're stuck here with fuck all
Some bands, the riffs, the singin' plus the bass the drums creates believers, leave us ringin' with our arms around our mates

Some bands can tell a story to unite and energise
And when some bands sing their glory just brings teardrops to our eyes
Some bands can stand together as a band but stand apart
Some bands will live forever in our broken, hopeful hearts

Most bands would give their all for this, few bands can just amaze
One band has just got all of this, that band is...
The fuckin' K's

I know I can't get much closer today
I know I'm burning, but I need an escape
Lord knows I've waited all week for today, all week for today
They say, Son, what've you done to your face?
It's such a terrible life to waste
Keep away from the sun
Oh, it's a fatal mistake, oh, it's a fatal mistake

I'm like midnight, mid-flight
Cotton mouth and wide eyed
Alright, face white, need a minute outside
Oh, 'cause I don't feel so alright
Well, now it's bright lights, can't hide
Hoping that I don't die
Teeth grind, new heights
Think I'm floating out of sight
Think I'm floating out of sight, oh

Feathers burn 'cause I get too high
Icarus falls out of the sky
And I go too far always, sometimes
Icarus is dead by sunrise

Now I'm on the wrong side of the waves
I ain't right, I ain't feeling okay
I'm still out of my head
I hope that they're still in bed
I hope no one's awake
They say, Son, you're a fucking disgrace
Can't believe it's my blood in your veins
I don't know who you are
You're not the boy that I raised
You're not the boy that I raised

I'm like midnight, mid-flight
Cotton mouth and wide eyed
Alright, face white, need a minute outside
Oh, 'cause I don't feel so alright
Well, now it's bright lights, can't hide
Hoping that I don't die
Teeth grind, new heights
Think I'm floating out of sight
Think I'm floating out of sight, oh

And feathers burn 'cause I get too high
Icarus falls out of the sky
And I go too far always, sometimes
Icarus is dead by sunrise

But I'm so high, I've been flying all night
Yeah, I'm soaring
Straight through to morning
Straight through to morning
Sun rose and I was too close, now it's dawning
My feathers are falling
I fell with no warning

And feathers burn 'cause I get too high
Icarus falls out of the sky
And I go too far always, sometimes
Icarus is dead by sunrise

And feathers burn 'cause I get too high
Icarus falls out of the sky
I go too far always, sometimes
Icarus is dead by sunrise
