"Icarus" lyrics

Here at the edge of the world
I make my final escape
There's a small chance I'll make it out alive

I've heard this tale before
I know just how it ends...

Fire won't bend just cause you believe
And the higher you go, the less you can see
They say he rose like a bird, fell like a stone
Now the ocean's his grave and the sky stands alone
Flew too close to the sun

I don't pray for mercy now
I never could kneel anyhow
If I fall, then let the silence sing

With the sun in my eyes
The fall underneath

Fire won't bend just cause you believe
And the higher you go, the less you can see
They say he rose like a bird, fell like a stone
Now the ocean's his grave and the sky stands alone
Flew too close to the sun

If flying means falling then so be the cost
At least in the rise I found what I lost

Fire won't bend just cause you believe
And the higher you go, the less you can see
They say he rose like a bird, fell like a stone
Now the ocean's his grave and the sky stands alone
Flew too close to the sun

Flew too close to the sun
Flew too close to the sun
