[Verse]
Wax wings stretch
Against the sky
Father's warning
A whispered cry
Higher I climb
The thrill
The burn
For the sun's embrace
My soul does yearn
[Chorus]
Too close! Too high! The fire calls!
My freedom soars
My glory falls!
Flames consume
The heavens weep
The tragic end
In death I sleep
[Verse 2]
Through clouds I pierce
The earth below
The world’s a blur
A golden glow
Blinded by joy
I feel no fear
The sun's song whispers
It draws me near
[Bridge]
Violins scream
A dirge of flame
A father's grief
He cries my name
Molten wax
My wings betray
The ocean roars
My final play
[Chorus]
Too close! Too high! The fire calls!
My freedom soars
My glory falls!
Flames consume
The heavens weep
The tragic end
In death I sleep
[Verse 3]
Icarus falls
A lesson learned
Dreams are ash
And hope is burned
Yet in my flight
I touched the sky
A fleeting moment before I die
