Dearest Icarus

Time to lay down and move on
These old memories are fading
Vindication seems self-hating
I think you're hallucinating
Take a breath, what comes to mind?
These memories will not unwind
Love is dead but the luck is blind
Now I'm just another thing you left behind

Oh and it's in my mind
And I can't sweat this out
It's with me all the time
Whenever I turn around
The clock is dripping off the wall
It won't be long now until the fall
No more aces up your sleeve
Maybe now would be a good time to leave

My self-conscious self esteem
Has always been too ambitious
These excuses, you sound vicious
I always was a little superstitious
When you lie out loud to your friends
I sound like myself again
It's too late to make amends
I'm starting to enjoy loose ends

Oh and it's in my mind
And I can't sweat this out
It's with me all the time
Whenever I turn around
The clock is dripping off the wall
It won't be long now until the fall
No more aces up your sleeve
Maybe now would be a good time to leave

Oh and it's in my mind
And I can't sweat this out
It's with me all the time
Whenever I turn around
The clock is dripping off the wall
It won't be long now until the fall
No more aces up your sleeve
Maybe now would be a good time to leave
