Icarus Lyrics by Anzac Park

Technicolor: The Demos

2019

[Verse 1]
I sip the drink
I lie to you, I'm fine
I do it all the time
Must be out of my mind

Dance 'til we die
Hide behind our dreams
Scared of falling autumn leaves
Ripping at the seams

And now we're here
We can't get off this train
We're running through the rain
I wish I hadn't stayed

Crying on the roof
In the dark with all of you
I know you feel it too
What am I supposed to do?

[Pre-Chorus]

What did we do, why did it all end up like this?
The windswept streets don't feel like home anymore
Fell out of our fantasies and down into the pits
Dancing in dark rooms but we're sad to the core
Opera of the evening, we couldn't be happier
I watched you all swim, now I'm alone on the shore
Picking flowers for myself, dreaming up melodramas
Just before we were swaying, now we're on the floor

[Chorus]

There's nothing holding me up, so we dance the world away

(There's nothing holding me up)
(There's nothing holding me up)

[Verse 2]

The night is young
So are we, but we're not dumb
We know there's more to come
That's why we start to run

Lie to your face
Tell you it's all okay
I'm fine, I'm doing great
The lights are low, we sway

And in the morning
Comes the sun's bitter light
Forget about the night
We shone a bit too bright

Icarus
Flew too close to the sun
And when all is said and done
We'll go back home

[Pre-Chorus]

What did we do, why did it all end up like this?
The windswept streets don't feel like home anymore
Fell out of our fantasies and down into the pits
Dancing in dark rooms but we're sad to the core
Opera of the evening, we couldn't be happier
I watched you all swim, now I'm alone on the shore
Picking flowers for myself, dreaming up melodramas
Just before we were swaying, now we're on the floor

[Chorus]

There's nothing holding me up, so we dance the world away

(There's nothing holding me up)
(There's nothing holding me up)

[Bridge]

The truth is I'm falling apart
A little bit, I lost my wings
We're all just waiting
For brighter blues and easier things

Blinded by the sun
I was reaching for the clouds
Now we're all far apart
And dancing in different crowds

[Chorus]

There's nothing holding me up, so we dance the world away

(There's nothing holding me up)
(There's nothing holding me up)

[Outro]

There's nothing holding me up, up, up, up
There's nothing holding me up, up, up, up
There's nothing holding me up, up, up, up
