Wax Wings lyrics

wax wings
on mine fearful flier
unalarmed in gravity s charm
and starter motors hum
ballads of ballasts
am i reaching?
*wax wins i surrender

and this makeshift design
will ground me
and without the air s arms
around me
i ll surrender the sky
to your dumb machine

wax wings
prepare for takeoff
with the engine beneath the ribs
and the wind sings
ballads of balance
can you hear me?
*wax wins i surrender

and i know that icarus
loves me
and there are no stars
above me
i melt into the sun
