Didn't mamma tell you Stories bout the man who flew too close to the sun Cold beneath his feet Honey drippin sweet? I watched him come undone
So boy don't be greedy now The honey makes you sick without the love If you're chasing your cold through empty skies Feel the fog from way up high Your feathers are melting I'm falling like i believe The gold is blinding You flew too close to the sun You flew too close to the sun All, all of my life I've only ever seen in shades of gold But now i'm searching for the treasure in a softer kind of love Cause i'm loosing everyone There's no fun in being alone Cause my feathers are melting I'm falling like i believe This gold is blinding You flew too close to the sun You flew too close to the sun I was loosing everyone There's no fun in being alone Then i melted in the light You spiralled from an empty sky My feathers are melting I was falling like i believe The gold was blinding When i flew too close to the sun When i flew too close to the sun Yeah, I flew too close, i flew too close, i flew too close to the sun I see the ocean in your eyes The sea of blue and green Wash up on my knees I finally found release from material disease And swam inside salvation
