Icarus

See through the smoke Just a card in play that she wrote my name on Breathing in the cold How could she throw me away? At least wait 'til I have wings on You know, I kissed her once and she smiled She'll never see the boy falling out of the sky It took me all I had to turn away from this one Thought I'd take my chances, I was blinded, I was young But then all at once, I was back to where I begun I was burned by the morning, I got too close to the sun She said, "Your feathers fit just right You're a fool, you're a climber, you should've called it a night" Well, it turns out (it turns out), I turned out fine (turned out fine) So better luck next time, I'm Icarus ascending You know, I kissed her once and she smiled She'll never see the boy falling out of the sky It took me all I had to turn away from this one Thought I'd take my chances, I was blinded, I was young But then all at once, I was back to where I begun I was burned by the morning, I got too close to the sun She'll never know I was falling, falling, oh I got too close to the sun It took me all I had to turn away from this one Thought I'd take my chances, I was blinded, I was in love But then all at once, I was back to where I begun I was burned by the morning, I got too close to the sun I got too close to the sun
