Icarus

I've heard of the stories of waxes and wings
How aiming for the sky is full of dangerous things
But maybe not me 'cause I was born in the flames
When I rise like a phoenix from the ashed unphased

They say that I'll crash and I'll burn
But I gotta say it's not, not today
Even if the sky is falling
I'll fly too close to the sun

I know I can take it
These wings are gonna take me up to outer space
So turn up all the heat
We're smiling while we fly too close to the sun

Don't be scared
It's better off up there
So bright, but, hey, who cares?
We're gonna fly too close to the sun

Don't stop, get it, get it higher
Don't stop, get it, get it higher
Don't stop, get it, get it higher
Don't stop, get it, get it higher

The air is getting thin but fire within is burning so hot
It's protecting my skin
My feathers might burn away, whatever it takes
With the roar of the thunder, running deep in my veins

They say that I'll crash and I'll burn
But I gotta say it's not, not today
Even if the sky is falling
I'll fly too close to the sun

Don't stop, get it, get it higher
Don't stop, get it, get it higher
And time is running out, so now I will fly away

They say that I'll crash and I'll burn
But I gotta say it's not, not today
Even if the sky is falling (fly too close to the sun)
They say that I'll crash and I'll burn
But I gotta say it's not, not today
Even if the sky is falling, fly too close to the sun

Don't stop, get it, get it higher
Don't stop, get it, get it higher
Don't stop, get it, get it higher
Don't stop, get it, get it higher

I know I can take it
These wings are gonna take me up to outer space
So turn up all the heat
We're smiling while we fly too close to the sun

Don't be scared
It's better off up there
So bright, but, hey, who cares?
We're gonna fly too close to the sun

Don't stop, get it, get it higher
Don't stop, get it, get it higher
Don't stop, get it, get it higher
Don't stop, get it, get it higher
