Icarus |
Seems like you just |
Started noticing |
How noticably bad things really are |
And when you walked past this couple arguing |
In a rolled up window |
Of a parked car |
And all of that |
Gesticulated bitterness |
And all of that |
Muffled yelling hell |
Its dark just starts wafting at you |
Like a big fury rat died |
Inside of that wall kinda smell |
Breathe like its rolling like a cold front |
Thunder is thundering and lightening in tow |
And your tiny little life gets |
Even smaller |
As you heed the heavens mighty show |
And I dont mean heaven |
Like god-like |
The animal in me knows very well |
Nature is our teacher, our leader, and our lover |
And God is just another story that we tell |
And youre trying not to grasp-not to start grasping |
At straws -or sticks- or stones |
Just learn how to sit inside your sadness |
Even if youre sitting there alone |
Its just like icarus ascending |
Never intending to look back |
Natures law and your tragic flaw |
I find descending |
Flying into the arms of a venus flytrap |
Guzzle till the buzzer stops |
Guzzle till the buzzer stops |
Guzzle till the buzzer stops |
Guzzle till the buzzer stops |
Guzzle till the buzzer stops |
