Did I miss the meeting
When you decided to dust me off the shelf
Your heart is fleeting
Your mind will mirror someone else
Your eyes deceiving
Your spirit climbing up my vines
Your hips receiving
Taking something and it ain't mine
Do I get a reason
Do I get a rhythm or a rhyme
Can I call it treason
Can I call it any heinous crime
Is it hunting season
Or just the season of yourself
It ain't worth believing
Cause your mind now mirrors someone else
If you ever find any peace of mind
Won't you send some here my way
Cause I'm out of time 'til I walk the line
And see the light of day
Til I ask the moon who he's talking to
And he turns with no reply
And the girl I see is a fantasy
And fantasies don't cry
Oh but romance to me can die
Tattered pictures
Old bubble gum and dancing shoes
That never fit her
Her grandma's ring that sings the blues
She won't remember
Her favorite t shirt on the floor
I won't forget her
I just won't remember anymore
If you ever find any peace of mind
Won't you send some here my way
Cause I'm out of time 'til I walk the line
And see the light of day
Til I ask the moon who he's talking to
And he turns with no reply
And the girl I see is a fantasy
And fantasies don't cry
Oh but romance to me can die
Broken fixtures
What happened to the dancing shoes
That just might fit her
Her grandma's ring that sings the blues
She won't remember
Her favorite t shirt on the floor
I won't forget her
I just won't remember anymore
If you ever find any peace of mind
Won't you send some here my way
Cause I'm out of time 'til I walk the line
And see the light of day
Til I ask the moon who he's talking to
And he turns with no reply
And the girl I see is a fantasy
And fantasies don't cry
Oh but romance to me can die
Time flies, let it go
Go by, creeping slow
I feel fine in your afterglow
You had to go away so soon
Ain’t high but I wanna be
No lie and a cherry tree
Sunrise wash over me
Another day of being free
Every time you feel confusion
Free your mind of all illusion
Close your eyes to see solution
No beginning, no conclusion
Rooftop in the summer glow
Eavesdrop on the world below
Tip top with my baby
Maybe this could be a dream
Pawn shop with a hidden ring
Bebop and a broken wing
Chop chop the universe
Is waiting on your everything
Every time you feel confusion
Free your mind of all illusion
Close your eyes to see solution
No beginning, no conclusion
High above it all
Far from the commotion
But you’re about to fall
Icarus in motion
You come from such humble beginnings
Rough hands and dirty shoes
Stranger to silver spoons
And now you’re drowning in your winnings
You soar on gilded wings
Keep score with gods and kings
No time for self-reflection
When striving for perfection
Ambition suits you like the labels that you wear
On the way up it’s all so thrilling
’Til you remember nothing is under you but air
High above it all
Far from the commotion
But you’re about to fall
And see the light of day
Icarus in motion
The universe just keeps on giving
Hungrily grasp for more
The endless spoils of war
They say that life is for the living
You’ve burned through twenty lives
Almost as many wives
The same universe that gave you wings
Can snatch them back before you blink
Your narcissism is a dangerous affair
On the way up it’s all so thrilling
’Til you remember nothing is under you but air
High above it all
Far from the commotion
High above it all
But you’re about to fall
Icarus in motion
It’s always sunny when you’re flying high above the clouds
Nothing to see below so up and up you go
No one but yourself can stop you now
As the sun destroys your wings
See the angels beckoning
High above it all
Far from the commotion
But you’re about to fall
Icarus in motion
