Cast from Icarus peaks You tumble from your pedestal A fading fallen phoenix The flowers are all crying as they drift dying Past the cold oleanders gaudy blooms You sleep deep in the fallen petals Of love wrapped in barbs of good intentions Golden chains clasped round your aching body Binding you to the sanity of your grey entrapment While colors dance in dizzy spells across the gilded links Reflected in the eyes of blind prophets And the gossamer bars of existence You dance in my darkness Your moth wings burnt and charred You fade my fallen angel And all is grey

Icarus Peaks
Cast from Icarus peaks You tumble from your pedestal A fading fallen phoenix The flowers are all crying as they drift dying Past the cold oleanders gaudy blooms You sleep deep in the fallen petals Of love wrapped in barbs of good intentions Golden chains clasped round your aching body Binding you to the sanity of your grey entrapment While colors dance in dizzy spells across the gilded links Reflected in the eyes of blind prophets And the gossamer bars of existence You dance in my darkness Your moth wings burnt and charred You fade my fallen angel And all is grey
