Testo Icarus Dreaming Under Mercury
For so long I dreamed that I could fly
These wings, they don't cover my pride
My frailty no longer catches this falling body
Sliding through air, now face-down I stare.
Faster I fall, faster I dive into my end
Like Icarus I am falling down.
I'm under the dark clouds of the hopeless night
Against time I shall spread wings for flight
Light never touches my dark fallen angel feathers
Heaven no longer opens its widows for this man.
I no longer feel the stars on my back
The comfort they gave is no longer mine
And I return to ground from which I came
Just a story is all that remains.
