father icarus
I open my eyes
And I am full of joy
As I am now the world, as the world is now me
I feel as though I can fly
Ye winds, o'world, lift my mortal body through thine skies, I bark
Allow me to feast upon thine celestial bodies, o'world
And lap at the bosom of your fruitage
I plead
I plead
I plead
But alas
I begin to fall
Oh Icarus, brave father of mine
Did tears burn off your face as you fell?
And did you feel the embrace of the winds?
Oh Father
How I lusted and burned as you had
But I ask of you, Father
Did you too, feel the love of the whole world upon you?
Oh Father
As I fall I think only
Of the world below me
And it's beauty
And of my predecessors
And of my own naïveté
Of the world
That I am
That is me
And I am full of joy
As I am now the world, as the world is now me
I feel as though I can fly
Ye winds, o'world, lift my mortal body through thine skies, I bark
Allow me to feast upon thine celestial bodies, o'world
And lap at the bosom of your fruitage
I plead
I plead
I plead
But alas
I begin to fall
Oh Icarus, brave father of mine
Did tears burn off your face as you fell?
And did you feel the embrace of the winds?
Oh Father
How I lusted and burned as you had
But I ask of you, Father
Did you too, feel the love of the whole world upon you?
Oh Father
As I fall I think only
Of the world below me
And it's beauty
And of my predecessors
And of my own naïveté
Of the world
That I am
That is me
