Icarus by Boy Icarus Lyrics
Wax wings
Fragile things
Made to make me fly
Oh Father said
I’d be dead
If I fly too high
Oh no no no
Oh no no no
So I face the heat
Oh I’m Icarus
It tastes so so sweet
Oh like licorice
I dangle my feet
Oh I’m into this
I need to retreat
But Oh I’m ignorant
And when those wax wings melt and I know they do
And I know they do yeah yeah yeah
Will you realize what you put me through
What you put me through yeah yeah yeah
Born in this world, Mother was a slave
And you expect me to behave
You expect me to behave
Oh no oh no oh no
So I face the heat
Oh I’m Icarus
It tastes so so sweet
Oh like licorice
I dangle my feet
Oh I’m into this
I need to retreat
But Oh I’m ignorant
Fragile things
Made to make me fly
Oh Father said
I’d be dead
If I fly too high
Oh no no no
Oh no no no
So I face the heat
Oh I’m Icarus
It tastes so so sweet
Oh like licorice
I dangle my feet
Oh I’m into this
I need to retreat
But Oh I’m ignorant
And when those wax wings melt and I know they do
And I know they do yeah yeah yeah
Will you realize what you put me through
What you put me through yeah yeah yeah
Born in this world, Mother was a slave
And you expect me to behave
You expect me to behave
Oh no oh no oh no
So I face the heat
Oh I’m Icarus
It tastes so so sweet
Oh like licorice
I dangle my feet
Oh I’m into this
I need to retreat
But Oh I’m ignorant
