about

A song about Icarus, who ignored his father's instructions not to fly too close to the sun, whereupon the wax in his wings melted and he fell into the sea.

lyrics

One day he decided to escape from crete with selfmade wings to fly above the sea. Who said escape will not work? Left the landscape far behind and the enemy lines. A high flight straight up to the fucking sky. Always thought he could survive.
Stop hiding! Keep flying! Or you will die alone.
He knew they can´t reach him, they can´t tear him down. They had to watch him from the fucking ground. Try to fly with burning wings! He caught fire. Flames all over. A burning man fell from the sky. Turn this page, it makes me sad!
Never fly to close to the sun!
