The Ridleys
Icarus
[Verse 1]
I set my mind on ending my lifelong dream of being happy
There's nothing left to lose
When you're standing underneath the—

[Verse 2]
I set my heart on giving up everything I thought I could be
There's nothing left to choose
When all the winding roads are just a ruse

[Chorus]
These are the things that are tearing up my soul
Could someone make me whole
The voice in me is crystal clear
It speaks to me in times of fear
And rids me of the longing for decay

[Verse 3]
A different kind of dying has to happen today
(So lead the way, lead the way)
A different kind of dying has to happen today
(So lead the way, lead the way)
'Cause I don't wanna go on throwing this life away
(So lead the way, lead the way)
A different kind of dying has to happen today
(So lead the way, lead the way)
[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
So lay out your blueprints and tables and plans
There is no fear when I'm safe in your hands
Take me and make me and break me again
All of the pieces are yours now to mend
Lay out your blueprints and tables and plans (Whole)
There is no fear when I'm safe in your hands
So take me and make me and break me again (Whole)
All of the pieces are yours now to mend
Whole (Whole, whole)

[Outro]
These wings have been taking me places again
Now I'm no farther than when I began
Here washed ashore tracing prints in the sand
They're leading me back, oh, they're leading me back
