Modern Day Icarus

I'm sick of feeling like apathy is the norm
I want a piece of heaven pie while it's still warm
I wanna see these dreams become more than the thoughts and things that only come around at night
Just wishful thinking, by the moonlight

Sometimes when I'm alone I like to dream
That I could spread my wings and fly
You and I are like the same you see
We both wanna touch the sky
Touch the sky

And I don't really know how to say this now
But I feel like I'm stuck under the clouds
Waging war with the daily grind
And sometimes I feel like I'm losing my mind

Checking myself for a pulse, I feel my blood under my skin, but that's it
Radio silence from my head
I wanna think it through, but then I just quit
Moving! I'm moving on a treadmill set to low
Going! Nowhere. Cause where the hell could I go?
Everybody wants to say that they got the answer
But who here even knows?

Sometimes when I'm alone I like to dream
That I could spread my wings and fly
You and I are like the same you see
We both wanna touch the sky
Touch the sky

I built these wings
To fly away
So all the bad things
Would go away

I built these wings
To fly away
So all the bad things
Will go away

I built these wings
To fly away
So all the bad things
Will go away

I built these wings
To fly away
So all the bad things
Will go away
