amidst the withering - icarus lyrics

Loading...

beneath the sun’s bright burning light
he dons waxed wings and poises to take flight
ascending, climbing high into a naked sky
resisting the very earth, as wakened gods we rise

no cage for men shall hold me for my father’s mind does shame metis and elevate us
i wrest a higher throne and no longer care for kings who rule beneath my feet

i raise my eyes to a god still above
should i dare rise or am i but a dove?
fathеr’s words echo but fade
as i shed all rеstraint

the world descends beneath me as soft winds carry me ever skyward, to untouched places
apollo rides before me. i’ve come to meet you oh great one as equals in the sky

so bright and ever fleeting, where doves would give gods chase
such warmth in never meeting on wings fragile as lace

father, what have i done? such gifts i’ve wasted
for my wings shall feed the sea
father, the deep is calling. i’m beckoned by the blackest waves
that are reaching up for me

but seconds left for shame between both sea and flame
i still rage against betraying skies
a lesson to my disdain shall i commit in vain
nothing’s left but to close my eyes

i leave you with my name
and failures that i’ve wrought
i pray my memory tames
delusions as i sought

beneath the sun’s fast fading light
he sinks beneath a dark hungry tide
no lot of earth shall hold me. though my father’s tears do salt the sea i’ll remain graveless
i claim the lowest throne and no longer care for kings for i shall feed the deep

shallow waves shall sing a hymn to praise a setting sun
as i lay eternally undone
