Icarus

(album: Sanctuary - 2020)

Went to work today
Found a world of pain
Fractured by fiction and cause
At the heart of night
Certain parasites
Are deeper than we thought

All bright minds
Open wide
Our cabin's in the dark
The wolf outside
In sheepskin hide
Sizing you up

Oh, child, listen to your innocence
I can build you better than developers
Your smile, given by your mother, but
That don't seem to matter now, we're going up

Oh, child, listen to your innocence
I can build you better than developers
Your smile, given by your mother, but
That don't seem to matter now, we're going up

A little compromise
Better join the slide
For visions of worship and blood
It never paid to say
Here in the darkest days
That talk will get you cut

All bright minds
Open wide
Your cabin's in the dark
The wolf outside
In sheepskin hide
Sizing you up

Oh, child, listen to your innocence
I can build you better than developers
Your smile, given by your mother, but
That don't seem to matter now, we're going up

Oh, child, listen to your innocence
I can build you better than developers
Your smile, given by your mother, but
That don't seem to matter now, we're going up

Hold tight, feel as though you never
Get on right, need to know better
Just hold tight, free to fall
Into your own light, you need to know better

Just hold tight, feel as though you never
Get on right, need to know better
Just hold tight, free to fall
Into your own light, you need to know better

Oh, child, listen to your innocence
I can build you better than developers
Your smile, given by your mother, but
That don't seem to matter now, we're going up

Oh, child, listen to your innocence
I can build you better than developers
Your smile, given by your mother, but
That don't seem to matter now, we're going up

Oh, child, listen to your innocence
I can build you better than developers
Your smile, given by your mother, but
That don't seem to matter now, we're going up
