Icarus

Seems like you just started noticing

How noticeably bad things really are

And then you walk past this couple arguing

In a rolled up window parked car

And all that gesticulated bitterness

And all'a that muffled yelling hell

It's like it just starts wafting at you

Like a big furry rat died inside of that wall kinda smell

Bad dreams like this roll in like a cold front

Thunderous thunder and lightning in tow

And your tiny little life gets even smaller

As you heed the heavens' mighty show

I don't mean heaven like godlike

'Cause the animal I am knows very well

That nature is our teacher and our mother

And God is just another

Story that we tell

You're trying not to grasp

Not to start grasping

At straws or sticks or stones

Have the strength to just sit inside your sadness

Even if you're sitting there alone

'Cause just like Icarus ascending

Never intending to look back

Nature's law and your tragic flaw

Are vying to send you flying into the arms of another Venus Flytrap

Guzzle till the buzzing stops

Guzzle till the buzzing stops

Guzzle till the buzzing stops
