Icarus

I've lived it all
The ups and downs
The smiles and frowns
The ones that got away

I've felt it all
The lasting hurt
The power of words
I didn't wanna have to say

But I spent every second
Like my life is gonna end
In and effort for my life
To be one that meant something

To someone

And so I wonder

Did Icarus
Know his time had come?
When he touched the sky
And he took a plunge

Was he striving for more
When he finally soared?
Or did he get much farther
Than he bargained for?

Did Icarus
Feel the way I feel?

I want it all
To gain a deeper love
And a deeper trust
For the world in which I live

But will I fall?
Like my has been heroes
Locked in devilish deals
When they've lost all they can give?

If I spend every second
Like my life is gonna end
In an effort for my life
To be one that meant something

Would I still think

Did Icarus
Know his time had come?
When he touched the sky
And he took a plunge

Was he striving for more
When he finally soared?
Or did he get much farther
Than he bargained for?

Did Icarus
Feel the way I feel?

Inside tonight
As I'm going towards the light
Oh God, would I
Fall short if I die tonight?

If my last day came
When you hear my name
Would I die a legend
Or just bring you shame

Like Icarus
If I knew when to stop
Less like Icarus
If I'd settle for below the top

Would I be better off
Than I am right now?
Or do the same type of problems
Always come around?
