Icarus (Jayden Parx Remix) Lyrics

Look who's digging their own grave
That is what they all say
You'll drink yourself to deathLook who makes their own bed
Lies right down within it
And what will you have left?Out on the front doorstep
Drinking from a paper cup
You won't remember thisLiving beyond your years
Acting out all their fears
You feel it in your chestYour hands protect the flames
From the wild winds around youIcarus is flying too close to the sun
And Icarus's life, it has only just begun
It's just begunStanding on the cliff face
Highest foe you'll ever grace
It scares me half to deathLook out to the future
But it tells you nothing
So take another breathYour hands protect the flames
From the wild winds around youIcarus is flying too close to the sun
And Icarus's life, it has only just begun

This is how it feels to take a fall
Icarus is flying towards an early graveYou put up your defenses when you leave
You leave because you're certain
Of who you want to beYou're putting up your armor when you leave
And you leave because you're certain
Of who you want to be, ohIcarus is flying too close to the sun
And Icarus's life, it has only just begun
This is how it feels to take a fall
Icarus is flying towards an early grave
