Icarus Lyrics by Gengahr

Sanctuary

2020

[Verse 1]
Went to work today, found a world of pain
Fractured by fiction and cause
At the heart of night, certain parasites
Are deeper than we thought

[Refrain]
All bright minds open wide
Our cabin's in the dark
The wolf outside in sheepskin hide
Sizing you up

[Chorus]
Oh, child, listen to your innocence
I can build you better than developers
Your smile, given by your mother
But that don't seen to matter now, we're going up
Oh, child, listen to your innocence
I can build you better than developers
Your smile, given by your mother
But that don't seen to matter now, we're going up

[Verse 2]
A little compromise better join the slide
For visions of worship and blood
It never paid to say, here in the darkest days
That talk will get you cut

[Refrain]
All bright minds open wide
Our cabin's in the dark
The wolf outside in sheepskin hide
Sizing you up

[Chorus]
Oh, child, listen to your innocence
I can build you better than developers
Your smile, given by your mother
But that don't seen to matter now, we're going up
Oh, child, listen to your innocence
I can build you better than developers
Your smile, given by your mother
But that don't seen to matter now, we're going up

[Bridge]
Straight into the sun, straight into the sun
Straight into the sun, straight into the sun
Straight into the sun, straight into the sun
Straight into the sun, straight into the sun
Hold tight, feel as though you never get on right
Need to know better, just hold tight
Free to fall into your own light
Need to know better, just hold tight
Feel as though you never get on right
Need to know better, just hold tight
Free to fall into your own light
Need to know better, just hold tight

[Chorus]
Oh, child, listen to your innocence
(Feel as though you never get on right)
I can build you better than developers
(Need to know better, just hold tight)
Your smile, given by your mother
(Feel as though you never get on right)
But that don't seen to matter now, we're going up
(You need to know better, just hold tight)
Oh, child, listen to your innocence
I can build you better than developers
Your smile, given by your mother
But that don't seen to matter now, we're going up
Oh, child, listen to your innocence
I can build you better than developers
Your smile, given by your mother
But that don't seen to matter now, we're going up
