never worried me,
you never seemed to be
Someone to lose their head,
even in the worst of times
With all those best of times
You were a model for me
But then one day I found
You were so slowly drowned
In insecurity
An d independency
The mold was thinly cracked
But you didn't see it happening
Icarus falls, of course we know
As the story goes
Wax swings and it burnt away
In the sun, he was done
All we can do is watch you fall
Into the California sea
You got too high and burnt out
So fast, this can't last
I'm never worried now,
you're always off somehow
Others will see you too,
and think it's all an act
In a way I guess it is,
but I don't find it funny
You dreamt of all the fame,
wealth,
women and acclaim
Ambition breaking you
Drug -fueled hys teria too
Maybe I'm too critical
But I'm scared of what is happening
Icarus folds a course we know
As the story goes
Wax wings that burnt away
In the sun
She was done
All we can do is watch you fall
Plummet to the sea,
you got too high and burnt out
Too fast, this can't last
So many people never fly like you
But there is more to this confounding life
than the limelight, I hope I'm right
Icarus falls, of course we know
As the storm goes,
waxed wings that burnt away
In the sun, he was dying
All we can do is watch you fall
Into the California sea
You've gone too high and
you've burned out
Too fast, this can't last
You
