Icarus Wings
It's the last night Of your perfect forgettable year In the half light You're certain the ending is clear It's been eating you away It's so good to hear you say Goodbye, calendar Hello, New Year's Day The words just die In the fireworks' din As the passion subsides And the panic pours in You try to fly but your Icarus wings Melt into nothing when you stop believing You were always so wrong You got lost in the hallways Of the always so wrong Never let them Realize that you think they're absurd Just forget them And the dreams they destroy with a word You had to get away You had nothing left to say except Goodbye, scarlet town SongtexteHello, new world grey But the past it pulls On your taut puppet strings And you're stuck in an opera Where nobody sings And you try to fly But your Icarus wings Melt into nothing when you stop believing You were always so wrong You got lost in the hallways Of the always so wrong The words just came my way That you're leaving here today Goodbye, wanderer Hello, camera fade 'Cause the road pulls you So hard it stings You just gotta know What the summer brings And you'll try to fly But your Icarus wings will fail you Like so many things You were always so wrong Aus Songtexte Mania
