Icarus - The Staves

Ideas hang before me

Oh but a breath away

They flicker into being

And then begin to fade

And when I'm tired of sitting

I drag my bones to bed

And when I'm tired of sleeping

I think of them instead

They're only words

Don't have to shout to be heard

I have not seen the light for days

Like icarus before me

These wings are not my own

And I am soaring skyward

Just to tumble home

Moment has gone

I'm not the best at moving on

Nothing to say no one would listen anyway

Anyway

I have not seen the light for days

Ooooo

I have not seen the light for days

I have not seen the light for days

And nights for days
