[C] Look who's drinking their own grave, that is what they all [E] say
You'll drink yourself [D] to death [C] Look who makes their own bed
It lies right down within [E] it and what will you [D] have left?
[C] Out on the front door, sweat drinking from a paper [E] cup
You won't remember [D] this [C] Living beyond your years
Acting out all their [Em] fears, you feel it in [D] your chest
[C] Your hands [G] protect the flames [Em] from the wild winds [D] around you
[Em] Icarus [C] is lying [G] too close to the sun [Em] And Icarus [C] said life, [G] it has only just begun
It's just [Em] begun
[C]
Standing on the cliff face, highest foil ever, [E] grace it scares me half [D] to death
[C] Look out to the future, but it sells you nothing, [Em] so take another [D] breath
[C] Your hands [G] protect the flames [Em] from the wild winds [D] around [Em] you

[Em] Icarus [C] is flying [G] towards an early grave
[C] You put on your defences when you [D] leave [B] You leave because [Em] you're certain [C] of who you want [D] to be
[C] You're putting off your armour when [D] you leave And [B] you leave because [Em] you're certain [C] of who you want [D] to be
