Icarus

[Verse 1]
Sweet nothings in one ear and out the other
So long I lived in fear of getting closer to you
And relying on your praise
Though it's diluting with the days
That passes by
To remind myself I still know how to fly

[Chorus]
It gets hard to breathe
And I can't believe I'm worth anything at all
And if these fragile wings can carry me along up to the sun
Can I bear the weight of the fall back down to you?

[Drop]

[Verse 2]
I wake up so convinced the tap’s stopped flowing
Got this incessant need to keep on showing
I'm fine, so I drain the river dry
Impressing a hundred thousand eyes
A sacrifice to remind myself I still know how to fly

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
And if these fragile wings can carry me along up to the sun
Can I bear the weight of the fall back down to you?

[Outro]
(Can I bear the weight of the fall?)
