wax wings
|
on mine fearful flier
|
unalarmed in gravity's charm
|
and starter motors hum
|
ballads of ballasts
|
am i reaching?
|
wax wins i surrender
|
|
and this makeshift design
|
will ground me
|
and without the air's arms
|
around me
|
i'll surrender the sky
|
to your dumb machine
|
|
|
wax wings
|
prepare for takeoff
|
with the engine beneath the ribs
|
and the wind sings
|
ballads of balance
|
can you hear me?
|
wax wins i surrender
|
|
|
and i know that icarus
|
loves me
|
and there are no stars
|
above me
|
i melt into the sun
|
|
