Golden Boy

You were the sun in my sky
Your love gave me light
You were the golden boy
I was your Icarus
Flying too close to your rays
Feeling my wings melt away
And I went down down down
Into the depths of the ocean
Falling from grace

Your words traced fine lines
Around my heart
So much so that when you left
The lines turned to cracks
And my heart broke apart
How can I stand
When my legs are full of tears and sand

You were the sun in my sky
Your love gave me light
You were the golden boy
I was your Icarus
Flying too close to your rays
Feeling my wings melt away
And I went down down down
Into the depths of the ocean
Falling from grace

Will I ever be free of
The sunburn memories that you gave me
Maybe next time
I'll put up a shield so the light won't get in
How can I laugh
When I cry if I see your photograph

You were the sun in my sky
Your love gave me light
You were the golden boy
I was your Icarus
Flying too close to your rays
Feeling my wings melt away
And I went down down down
Into the depths of the ocean
Falling from grace

I bet years from now these scars will fade away
And I'll think of you with a smile on my face
Then I'll stand and laugh and dance and sing
And tell everyone my story of how

You were the sun in my sky
Your love gave me light
You were the golden boy
I was your Icarus
Flying too close to your rays
Feeling my wings melt away
And I went down down down
Down down down
Down down down
Into the depths of the ocean
Falling from grace
