Icarus

Tossing, turning
Sleep keeps evading me
Thoughts come, thoughts go
Like bursts of electricity
Listen to this heart
Pounding heavily

Wax and feathers
And a vision of liberty
Oh, how dare we
Reach the boundaries of divinity!
They know what we've done
They'll come after us
For flying like the gods
Aiming for the sun

But we won't listen
We'll never listen to the warning
We'll never listen
We'll never listen to the warning
'Cause there's a star in the horizon
Waiting to be found
And conquered

Can you feel it?
The power of its raging flames:
Taunting, tempting us
To reach where no man has been
How could we resist
Its warm and tender kiss?
Like two birds we fly
We own the sun and sky

We didn't listen
We didn't listen to the warning
We didn't listen
We didn't listen to the warning
Now in the bottom of the ocean
There's an angel
With broken wings

In the bottom of the ocean
Lies an angel
