Lyrics
fell out of the air and you broke your wings like you’re doing every other time made a new pair out of broken things to give it all another try and you climb right up to the highest peaks and reach out to the edge of the world you seek afraid of heights so you don't believe you could ever be good enough go on then, Icarus take your turn you always fly right up until it burns your wings you never could change always the victim into the flames again go on then, Icarus take your turn you'll never go through them head in the clouds buried your feet in the ground telling yourself it's the world that holds you down but you've got your chin held high and your chest pumped up the replica of a runner-up you were made for skies but you called your bluff now you'll never be good enough go on then, Icarus take your turn you always fly right up until it burns your wings you never could change always the victim into the flames again go on then, Icarus take your turn you'll never go through them you'll never go through them you'll never go through them so fall back down, back down again got your head in the clouds on the ground again looking for a scapegoat to hold your feet pounding on your chest so you don't feel weak you fall back down, back down again go on then, Icarus take your turn you always fly right up until it burns your wings you never could change always the victim into the flames again go on then, Icarus take your turn you'll never go through them
