young boy is grinning at his flapping wings
young boy, he thinks he'll grab the sun
young boy's dreams are fiction
he still thinks he's an eagle
daddy-daddy daedalus, he's never there
killed himself, a hurricane of shame
momma and minos, you know they tried
young boy melts wax wings to his back
he still thinks he's an eagle
the sunshine was special on his fingertips
he braced himself, yeah, felt it on his lips
and the feathers tore away
meanwhile, kids back home, stare at the sky
always knew what he didn't, always knew
he could never ever
he could never ever
fly
