Wax Wings

Wax Wings #music #emotional #pop #alternative #rock #alternativerock Lyrics: WAX WINGS Mama told me, mama told me... Don't fly too close to the sun, baby... Don't fly too close... But I did anyway. You came to me with golden eyes Honey lips and pretty lies I knew the ending from the start Built a fire in my chart You said, "baby, take a chance" Held my hand like sweet romance Burning, burning, burning... I just smiled and learned to dance Higher, higher, higher we go Past the place where angels know Higher, higher, I can't stop Even when I feel the drop I got wax wings, baby, wax wings Watch me catch the sun and burn for everything Knew you'd break me, knew you'd break me Still I flew right into all the pretty things Wax wings, wax wings, melt me down Loved you knowing I would hit the ground Wax wings, wax wings, this is how I drown Falling, falling, with a goddamn crown Now my feathers turn to smoke Promises you never spoke "I told her I'd never stay" You just laughed and watched me choke Bargained pieces of my soul For a thrill that left me cold What a story to be told Icarus but twenty-fold Higher, higher, higher we go Past the place where angels know Higher, higher, I can't stop Here it comes, here comes the drop I got wax wings, baby, wax wings Watch me catch the sun and burn for everything Knew you'd break me, knew you'd break me Still I flew right into all the pretty things Wax wings, wax wings, melt me down Loved you knowing I would hit the ground Wax wings, wax wings, this is how I drown Falling, falling, with a goddamn crown The funny thing about Icarus... He could've turned around. But he didn't. And neither did I. Sun's so warm, sun's so cruel Loved a god, played the fool Saw the rocks below the sea Still I dove for you and me Take me down Burn me out This is all I've ever wanted This is all I've ever wanted Wasn't it beautiful? I got wax wings, baby, wax wings Watch me catch the sun and burn for everything Knew you'd break me, knew you'd break me Still I flew right into all the pretty things Wax wings, wax wings, melt me down Loved you knowing I would hit the ground Wax wings, wax wings, this is how I drown Falling, falling, with a goddamn crown Mama told me, mama told me... Don't fly too close to the sun, baby... I should've listened.
