Enter The Haggis - Icarus lyrics

rate me

My hand stopped her cold from its place in the air

But it lingered a while in her hair

To whisper remember me

And I'll still walk away while behind me she'll say

You can only go so far before

You start coming back to me

And pretty soon I've got my hands in the hive

And Delilah is shaving her head

To prepare for millenial things

The day is coming

When Bacchus will follow us, don't be afraid

His women have joined the parade

To dance for perennial kings

Who the clones of our collective unconscious

Thoughts will bring

You say that you spoke to the priest

I pray you didn't mention me

I can't be forgiven until I've acknowledged my sin

You say Rome wasn't built in a day

But it crumbled for centuries

And I can't put my trust in the ways of the just

For it's justice that's thrust us into this mess we're in

I'm holding my head, it all happened so fast

I'm holding my tongue, cause I know it won't last

I'm holding my wrists, I'm denying my past

And I'm holding my breath, you can turn on the gas

Cause I'm holding my breath, yes I'm holding it but all these

Omnicidal urges are stronger than I

I'd almost think someone was having some fun with me

Yanking my strings 'till I curl up and die

You think I am weak 'till your strength starts to go

And you reach for my hand as I take to the sky

My father I've waited and awful long time for this

Rot in your labyrinth

I have learned to fly
