The embrace of the Sun doth make Icarus’ wings melt. Drip drop, pit pat. Forgotten dreams, fallen wings Fading into nothingness as the two embrace Broken hearts, torn feathers The tale of the star-crossed Icarus, bundle of joy Overflowing with innocence Soaring through the air And with him Freedom and happiness And the ability to lie Sun stood. Prideful, strong, bright. Lonely. She yearned for another With whom she could share Her light and warmth Her darkness and coldness. He desired nothing more than the company of another She desired nothing more than the company of another So Icarus said to the Sun Let me stay, I won’t leave you This place is right where I need to be And though Sun knew The embrace of Sun, will make Icarus’ wings melt But she kept silent, and nodded. The two were happy for a long while -Drip drop, pit pat- so very happy together -Drip drop, pit pat- never wanting to let go -Drip drop, pit pat- Drip drop, pit pat Drip Drop Pit Pat Drip Waxy tears coating his disappearing surface Waxy tears lining her marooned surface The embrace of the Sun doth make Icarus melt. Drip drop, pit pat. Forgotten dreams, fallen wings She faded into nothingness as he melted away Broken hearts, torn feathers Never seeing the light of day Never seeing, the light of day.

Icarus
The embrace of the Sun doth make Icarus’ wings melt. Drip drop, pit pat. Forgotten dreams, fallen wings Fading into nothingness as the two embrace Broken hearts, torn feathers The tale of the star-crossed Icarus, bundle of joy Overflowing with innocence Soaring through the air And with him Freedom and happiness And the ability to lie Sun stood. Prideful, strong, bright. Lonely. She yearned for another With whom she could share Her light and warmth Her darkness and coldness. He desired nothing more than the company of another She desired nothing more than the company of another So Icarus said to the Sun Let me stay, I won’t leave you This place is right where I need to be And though Sun knew The embrace of Sun, will make Icarus’ wings melt But she kept silent, and nodded. The two were happy for a long while -Drip drop, pit pat- so very happy together -Drip drop, pit pat- never wanting to let go -Drip drop, pit pat- Drip drop, pit pat Drip Drop Pit Pat Drip Waxy tears coating his disappearing surface Waxy tears lining her marooned surface The embrace of the Sun doth make Icarus melt. Drip drop, pit pat. Forgotten dreams, fallen wings She faded into nothingness as he melted away Broken hearts, torn feathers Never seeing the light of day Never seeing, the light of day.
