synical - icarus lyrics
[intro]:
(they say “don’t fly too close to the sun”, but they tell you take risks in life. like, which one are you supposed to believe? you’ll never know how to reach the sun unless you’ve built the wings)
[verse 1]:
we’re all soldiers in our own war, no artillery
when i speak my music, what does art really mean
i’m sitting, watching the stars and they intervene
wanna change the future, without any history
how i’ve come this far is still my own mystery
the uppers looking down, i see through trickery
the only way to win is to lose, that’s victory
i know that she’s done with me, she’s sick of me
i’ve had too many cigarettes, it’s a risk to breathe
i’ve got a kid to feed, yet i’m still chasing the top
and when i climb up there, i’ll realise it’s for what
overpriced luxury and some brand new shoes
they say that it’s the hardest to find the truth
but when the truth is in view, what can you do
other than find every melody in a song is blue
and you paid a high price just for ocean views
broken truths, filled up with the sickest of lies
i don’t take risks, so i’ve missed all of the tries
tell me what you find, when you listen to my lyrics
i’m bound to the earth by our physics, not with it
if you want me to stay in my own lane then stick it
i put the key in the ignition and then i go twist it
i must’ve missed it, the flight out of this land
wanna be your man, but i still wanna be a boy
i spent years trying to fill all of this empty void
but you realise that the silence is white noise
this was a choice, but it’s now my essential
i don’t take your advice, i don’t find it helpful
my nan tells me to find a real job,what am i meant to?
i’ve got no one to vent to, my downfall is eventual
you tear me down, bit by bit, but i always let you
then when i mention past issues, you get forgetful
oh that’s coincidental
[chorus]:
now let me just sit and breathe
sit and see, as all the shooting stars come falling
they telling me to fly when i spent life crawling
i know that i’m just stalling, flying before walking
i’ve wiped the walls, and now i’m redrawing
i’ve had an empty void, and i keep on falling
i keep on falling
i keep on falling
[verse 2]:
sick of the city lights, they still do nothing for me
what was your first thought when you saw me
was it negative? or am i still being a pessimist
i’m so upset with this, can’t keep wrecking this
i came to my own funeral, i was dressed for it
i see my negative reflection, i feel so next to him
i wish the best for him, i’ve gotta have positivity
i’m positively, trying to make this change inside
but i can feel my morality just rotting as time
flies by, wondering what it feels like to just die
and then i realise, time is valuable, incalculable
all of the trauma i’m feeling, isn’t fathomable
you joke and laugh at it all, but i’m the comedian
i feel so numb, i wish i could know how to feel again
i’m blind in my own thoughts, i just wanna see again
i know you’ll just leave again
[chorus]:
now let me just sit and breathe
sit and see, as all the shooting stars come falling
they telling me to fly when i spent life crawling
i know that i’m just stalling, flying before walking
i’ve wiped the walls, and now i’m redrawing
i’ve had an empty void, and i keep on falling
i keep on falling
i keep on falling
[verse 3]:
don’t pretend that you still know me, that’s the old me
the only reason i’m poor is because of the lies you sold me
didn’t wanna call me, that’s fine i can do this by myself
don’t need no one else, don’t need no ones help
i’m the hero in a story that i myself can only tell
i flew towards the sun, and blamed you when i fell
told me all your issues, blamed you for
what you felt
i’m feeling unwell, you said you’d change, but it’s my place
to change my past faults, all of these past issues
p-ss me the tissues, it’s been such a long day
the future feels too far away, for me to have it
never been romantic, i just hold hands, times a sand
of its own, learnt that from an 80s song, how deep
the cliff side of your new mansion looks steep
take a look into my soul and then you’ll see
that pieces are missing, my mind is so twisted
that’s probably why my family no longer visit
they say that i’m suffering such a sickness
that’s wishing, for an easier cure than i’ve got
you’ll never know what you have till it’s lost
the price of selling out is never worth the cost
i’d give anything of mine to just have one shot
one chance, one moment to change my fate
but when i reach the fame, will i feel out of place
will i put on a face, pretend that i’m fine, for a grind
i’ll find out in due time, but until then i’m on the line
fifty/fifty chance of me making it, not faking it
you’ll reach the top, wonder was it worth chasing it
i just know i have one life and i’m not wasting it
my deep lyrics are my thoughts, what you make of it
either relatable, fake and all, doesn’t matter to me
me not making this music is a sight sadder to see
you’ve heard the fake songs, here’s the ballad of me
icarus
