Icarus & Apollo Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Apollo showed me the sun
Told me not to fly too close
Or else I would be one
With the people on the land
Icarus, show me the moon
Point me in a new direction
Far away from you
Avoiding all the aftermath
[Interlude]
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
[Verse 2]
Daylight shuffles in
Cascading through the open door
And dancing on your lips
Where you held your cigarette
I remember when
You told me you were afraid to die
And then you grabbed my hand
Just above the kitchen table
[Interlude]
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
[Verse 3]
So, Apollo, bring me back
To the place I was before I met you
And Icarus, lead the way
To where I need to go
I hear your footsteps now
Barefoot soles on the bathroom floor
And on my way out
I told you I would never leave
[Outro]
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
