Skysweeper - Icarus the Owl

Hypocrisy: it’s all that I do

I cannot seem to part with it

You’ve sworn them in

They know every clue

Where there’s a will

A mountain stands in its way

I’m not allowed to fly, she stopped the engine

She’s not allowed to die until we’re finished

You said yourself you won’t give up

If you won’t mind I’d like to try

You were not buried from this

You were not

I cannot seem to leave you in pieces

We cease to be the morning after

Listen in, they’re pleading

To change your mind one more time

You were not buried from this

You were not

Open up your eyes

See me fall in love

And watch me feed her to the wolves

She’s taken up my time

It’s more precious than her warmth

It moves quicker than you want

There she goes (x2)

She’s strung up by her toes

You walked out on me

Listen close (The look on their faces)

(The worst of all places) Listen Close

(My heart won’t stop racing)

(I can do better now)

Hear them break (No more temptation)

(However, we phrase this) All of her bones

(We can’t be sated) How could this be?

(Bitter and falling out)

This is falling apart

You’re my unlucky star

I thought I was (x2) a millionaire

But we did not strike gold

We ended up alone

Like we were when we were young

And everything we touched turned golden
