"Icarus" lyrics

Man it's good to be alive today
Some folks know I should be in a grave
Floating around on that astral plane
But I'm still down here and I'm still breathing

I gotta fire that constantly burns
It's fueled by hard times and lessons learned
You wanna take me down best wait your turn
I gotta body count that's stacked up to the damn ceiling
I never gave a damn about your scene
Or your psychotic monopolies
You picked my pocket just to watch me bleed
But I'm still out here and I'm still singing

I guess I've finally found peace out here in the wild
As my reflection shows the lessons and the miles
And hell I've known because hell I've seen hell them ghost still carry me
Through the fields of thorns and the promises broken
There's far too many words that we leave unspoken

Maybe for once you could open your mind
And see it's been like this since the beginning of time
Around here the blind lead the blind
They wanna burn you down and leave your ashes smoking

Well, I was fired straight out of a gun
I've lived my life always on the run
I messed around and flew too close to the sun
It's been a few years now but my eyes are open

I find it best to just be yourself
In a world that tells you to be someone else
For the time will come when the pin hits the shell
You best know who you are when your number's chosen

I guess I've finally found peace out here in the wild
As my reflection shows the lessons and the miles
And hell I've known because hell I've seen hell them ghost still carry me
Yea I guess I've finally found peace out here in the wild
As my reflection shows the lessons and the miles
And hell I've known 'cause hell I've seen hell them ghost still carry me
Through the fields of thorns and the promises broken
There's far too many words that we leave unspoken

Well, I guess I've finally found peace out here in the wild
As my reflection shows the lessons and the miles
And hell I've known because hell I've seen hell them ghost still carry me
Yea I guess I've finally found peace out here in the wild
As my reflection shows the lessons and the miles
And hell I've known 'cause hell I've seen hell them ghost still carry me
Through the fields of thorns and the promises broken
There's far too many words that we leave unspoken
