Icarus

[Verse 1]
Wisdom from the devil's tongue
Sinks like poison in my lungs
Good intentions paving hell
And I'm lost in the fire as well

[Pre-Chorus]
Carry me up through the stratosphere
The blood that I collected remains here

[Chorus]
Icarus
Wings of dust
Burn me up
Burn me up
Bladed feathers painted red
I'm a slave to what I said
I'm a piece in different games
Blindfolding everyone but me
Blank face underneath the mask
Can't remember who I am
I'll be your sacrifice if I'm right
I'll go up in flames anyway

[Verse 2]
We are built of empty words
Shards of truth can still be heard
Broken masks for saviors
We're all victims of this world

[Pre-Chorus]
What is a hero to someone damned?
Do I still have a right to who I am?

[Chorus]
Icarus
Wings of dust
Burn me up
Burn me up
Bladed feathers painted red
I'm a slave to what I said
I'm a piece in different games
Blindfolding everyone but me
Blank face underneath the mask
Can't remember who I am
I'll be your sacrifice if I'm right
I'll go up in flames anyway

[Bridge]
Ash graying my wings
Sun is eclipsed
Just a little longer now
Hold on
Burning slowly
Almost lovely
Who do I become if I fall?
Was I a savior after all?

Bladed feathers caught on fire
I can still go higher
I'm a piece in different games
Blindfolding everyone but me

[Chorus]
Blank face underneath the mask
Part of me knows who I am
I'll be your sacrifice if I'm right
I'll go up in flames anyway
Burn me up
