Icarus
You said you're not a relationship person
When you meant you cannot commit
And you said you wanted your freedom
And then fought for the opposite
And that would be okay, my darling
If what you did didn't hurt me
But if the price of your freedom's my cage, my love
Then Lord knows you're free to leave
So this is goodbye, Icarus
Go make your great escape
My mind's made up now, Icarus
And I wish you well whatever your fate
I get you're feeling confused
And I get you're waiting on a sign
But if that's all I get and you take the rest
Well, I think I should leave it behind
'Cause you told me it would all work out
And I took what you said on trust
But what I didn't know at the time
Was you weren't talking about us
So this is goodbye, Icarus
Go make your great mistake
This island's closed for business
And I wish you well whatever your fate
You said you're not a relationship person
Maybe you're not
And you said you wanted your freedom
That's what you got
And that must be okay, my darling
Though what you did really hurt me
'Cause though the price of your freedom's
My cage, my love
You were always free to leave
Yeah, though the price of your freedom's
My cage, my love
You were always free to leave
So this is goodbye, Icarus
Go make your great mistake
My mind's made up now, Icarus
And I wish you well whatever your fate
So this is goodbye
Yeah, this is goodbye
Yeah, this is goodbye
This is goodbye, Icarus
When you meant you cannot commit
And you said you wanted your freedom
And then fought for the opposite
And that would be okay, my darling
If what you did didn't hurt me
But if the price of your freedom's my cage, my love
Then Lord knows you're free to leave
So this is goodbye, Icarus
Go make your great escape
My mind's made up now, Icarus
And I wish you well whatever your fate
I get you're feeling confused
And I get you're waiting on a sign
But if that's all I get and you take the rest
Well, I think I should leave it behind
'Cause you told me it would all work out
And I took what you said on trust
But what I didn't know at the time
Was you weren't talking about us
So this is goodbye, Icarus
Go make your great mistake
This island's closed for business
And I wish you well whatever your fate
You said you're not a relationship person
Maybe you're not
And you said you wanted your freedom
That's what you got
And that must be okay, my darling
Though what you did really hurt me
'Cause though the price of your freedom's
My cage, my love
You were always free to leave
Yeah, though the price of your freedom's
My cage, my love
You were always free to leave
So this is goodbye, Icarus
Go make your great mistake
My mind's made up now, Icarus
And I wish you well whatever your fate
So this is goodbye
Yeah, this is goodbye
Yeah, this is goodbye
This is goodbye, Icarus
