Tale ov Icarus

from Demo v1​.​1 by Scurìu

/

about

For this track I used a discarded idea for a band I used to play in, and I decided to use the myth of Icarus to let something personal out.

lyrics

"Alas to me, for I've been a fool!"

I was trapped
In a labyrinth
I was trapped
With no way out

"But Father built a pair ov wings for me and warned me not to fly too close to the sea, nor too close to the Sun"

In a dream I saw
The Land ov Light
I was about
To reach its shores
In a dream I saw
The Land ov Light
I was about
To reach its shores

So I put
My wings on
And then I
Started to fly

"Not giving a shit ov the perils on the path. I was too drunk on the ecstasy on this flight"

So I flew to
The Land ov Light
I was about
To reach its shores
So I flew to
The Land ov Light
I was about
To reach its shores

"But suddenly the Sun started to blind me and to melt my wings, and I fell into the deep waters. No more will I be able to breathe or dream
Consumed by my own darkness
Dwelling in nothingness"

Farewell
Land ov Light
No more will I
Reach your shores
Farewell
Land ov Light
No more will I
Reach your shores
