CAPO ON 4
[Verse 1]
You ve got your eyes closed, such a temper
Been so long that you can t remember
How it started, how they took you down
You got your wings up, now they re laughing
You re the food at the feast that that they are having
And you know running away doesn t prove them wrong
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Well have you tried apologizing?
Do you know the mess you ve made?
You believe you hold the answers
But your feathers are all frayed
[Chorus]
Oh well, Icarus, Icarus
Why you so serious, serious?
You know you ve gotta let it go
Cause you re flying too close
[Verse 2]
There in your ego lies your weakness
Wrap it tightly and keep it at your chest
You are only the front that you harness
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Cause silence is so underrated
Their voices are a loaded gun
You ll be swallowed up by the sun
Cause you re trying to be someone
[Chorus]
Oh well, Icarus, Icarus
Why you so serious, serious?
You know you ve gotta let it go
Cause you re flying too close
Oh well, Icarus, Icarus
You re being so dangerous, dangerous
You know the higher you fly
The less you can hide
[Bridge]
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
[Pre-Chorus 3]
Cause they re all waiting in the ocean
With open arms to drag you down
So have you tried apologizing
Before you start to drown?
[Chorus]
Oh well, Icarus, Icarus
Why you so serious, serious?
You know you ve gotta let it go
Cause you re flying too close
Oh well, Icarus, Icarus
You re being so dangerous, dangerous
You know the higher you fly
The less you can hide
