​icarus Lyrics by Baby and the Brain

BrainBaby

2021

[Verse 1]
Come on now, leave with my best friend
It’s okay, I know how this ends
And nothing’s gonna stop me now
And I got my hands 'round her waist
I think we’re going back to her place
And nothing’s gonna stop me now
But she doesn’t know how
[Chorus]
I can't get too close
Or I'll fall apart
I'm a flight risk
And they’ve watched me leave
Last night on the floor
Like I've done before
Catching lovers
I know I can't keep
[Post-Chorus]
What happens now?
[Verse 2]
And I’m making friends with myself
'Cause I don’t need his or her help
And nothing's gonna stop me now
Oh, and now there’s that spot on my wall
Your number in case that you call
But I’m done with romancing
And canceling plans
Just in hopes that I'll let myself fall, oh
[Chorus]
I can't get too close
Or I'll fall apart
I'm a flight risk
And they’ve watched me leave
Last night on the floor
Like I've done before
Catching lovers
I know I can't keep
[Bridge]
I won’t wait for you to call me
I won’t wait for you-ou-ou, you-ou-ou
I won’t wait for you to call me
I won’t wait for you-ou-ou, you-ou-ou (Nothing's gonna stop me)
I won’t wait for you to call me (Saw you in the lobby, wrote you on my body)
I won’t wait for you-ou-ou, you-ou-ou (Now you're gonna haunt me, nothing's gonna stop me)
I won’t wait for you to call me (Saw you in the lobby, wrote you on my body)
I won’t wait for you-ou-ou, you-ou-ou (Now you're gonna haunt me, haunt me)
[Outro]
Come on now, leave with my best friend
It’s okay, I know how this—
