The heart is deceiving
Mine told me

"Fly into the sun on your wings of wax

Over the ocean and watch it dance

Before it fades away forever"

Now maimed by the sun that I tried to follow

This ocean's so wide, how'd I fall to the shallows?

But I will rise
Up again
From these broken wings

If your soul of wax
Can take my heart of glass
And mend every piece

Fall fall Icarus fall fall Icarus fall
Into this ocean we call love
Fall fall Icarus fall fall Icarus fall
Your wings have given up

If am drowning
Then love must be an ocean

If love is an ocean
Then I must be Icarus

If I am Icarus
Then I must be drowning
