Icarus Lyrics by Going Spaceward

2020

Maybe you're crazy for trying
How could you dare attempt flying?
There's no one who can stop you now
The question isn't if but rather how

Isn't there pride in ambition?
Having a goal and a mission?
Who knows what I've yet to be
If they can do it, you think "Why not me?"

We try to fly
It turns to a crawl
Once we find out we're not special at all
Feathers and wax
The wings come undone
"Get back to work, kid, there's no time for fun"
You're too close to the sun

Put all your eggs in one basket
Dig your own grave, build your casket
You settle into some routine
And take a match to every dream you have

All of the effort you're giving
You are alive but not living
You had a chance to make your play
But now you're caught up in the day by day

So, we fly low, it's safe by the shore
But something inside is still hungry for more
The wings become stiff
You need to be free
You say, "This life is too simple for me"
You're too close to the sea
