Help me, I’m Icarus I’m sinking, into the sea Everyone knows what got me here, My pride got the best of me I’m in your tattoos, your cautionary tales Don’t patronize me like Moby, the **** got swallowed up by a whale Save me from drowning It could be worth your while Even though, as long as I live My legend inevitably dies Help me, I’m Icarus Sinking into the sea My pride may have gotten me here, but I died from your apathy

Icarian Apathy
Help me, I’m Icarus I’m sinking, into the sea Everyone knows what got me here, My pride got the best of me I’m in your tattoos, your cautionary tales Don’t patronize me like Moby, the **** got swallowed up by a whale Save me from drowning It could be worth your while Even though, as long as I live My legend inevitably dies Help me, I’m Icarus Sinking into the sea My pride may have gotten me here, but I died from your apathy
