Wings of Feathers and Wax
Beloved boy with melted wings
From summers long ago
With rosy cheeks the evergreens
Followed you to and fro
Apollo, strike me down with him
Or take me to the Lethe
I've bathed in the Acheron
More times than I have breathed
This gift I was given
is a curse unto me
I warned you time and time again
You still did as you pleased
Angels fall to earth in such serenity
We're all doomed to bear witness, especially me
The sun will be your rival and so will the sea
If you'd have waited a little while longer, maybe you'd be free
Stand by all of your failures
A loyal servant
Hubristic, high, and lovely
With a mind so fervent
Circe, why'd you save him
Did you know what he'd become
Did you know about my sweet boy's death?
the strings the fates would strum
The child that you saved that day
was never one at all
He grew into a monster
but a monster we are al
Angels fall to earth in such serenity
We're all doomed to bear witness, especially me
The sun will be your rival and so will the sea
If you'd have waited a little while longer, maybe you'd be free
The sun will be your rival and so will the sea
If you'd have waited a little while longer, maybe you'd be free
From summers long ago
With rosy cheeks the evergreens
Followed you to and fro
Apollo, strike me down with him
Or take me to the Lethe
I've bathed in the Acheron
More times than I have breathed
This gift I was given
is a curse unto me
I warned you time and time again
You still did as you pleased
Angels fall to earth in such serenity
We're all doomed to bear witness, especially me
The sun will be your rival and so will the sea
If you'd have waited a little while longer, maybe you'd be free
Stand by all of your failures
A loyal servant
Hubristic, high, and lovely
With a mind so fervent
Circe, why'd you save him
Did you know what he'd become
Did you know about my sweet boy's death?
the strings the fates would strum
The child that you saved that day
was never one at all
He grew into a monster
but a monster we are al
Angels fall to earth in such serenity
We're all doomed to bear witness, especially me
The sun will be your rival and so will the sea
If you'd have waited a little while longer, maybe you'd be free
The sun will be your rival and so will the sea
If you'd have waited a little while longer, maybe you'd be free
