Thrice - Daedalus lyrics

Your rating:




I stand on the cliffs with my son next to me

This island our prison, our home

And everyday we look out at the sea

This place is all he's ever known



But I've got a plan and some wax and some string; 

some feathers I stole from the birds

We leap from the cliff and we hear the wind 

sing a song that's too perfect for words



But son, please keep a steady wing

And know your the only one that means anything to me

Steer clear of the sun, or you'll find yourself in the sea



Now safely away, I let out a cry

"We'll make the mainland by noon"

But Icarus climbs higher still in the sky

Maybe I've spoken too soon



Oh son, please keep a steady wing

And know your the only one that means anything to me

Steer clear of the sun, or you'll find yourself in the sea

Won't you look at your wings

They're coming undone

They're splitting at the seams

Steer clear of the sun, for once won't you listen to me?



O, Gods!

Why is this happening to me?

All I wanted was a new life for my son to grow up free

And now you took the only thing that meant anything to me

I will never fly again, I will hang up my wings

O, Gods!

Why is this happening to me?

All I wanted was a new life for my son to grow up free

And now you took the only thing that meant anything to me

I will never fly again, I will hang up my wings!

O, Gods!
