Chonny Jash – Wings of Wax Lyrics

Artist: Chonny Jash
Song: Wings of Wax

Daedalus warned us of this before, an untimely demise to be
“Wings of wax can only fly so high and swoop so low. Be careful son, of the dampening tides and the melting gaze of Apollo.”
But words of warning aren’t worth much when falling on deaf ears
The child: his feathers fell to dust, and the father: he fell to tears

So toe the line. And stay aligned. Don’t fall bеhind, but don’t run ahead, you’ll end up dead
Thе road we walk. Is lined in chalk. And soon the clock will tick its final tock, and death will knock
But there’s an Icarus in all of us: a child struck by glee
We all lost trust in Daedalus once we caught the thought of escaping

‘cos we all get stuck, down on our luck, yeah we’re all just trapped on Crete
Oh there’s an Icarus in all of us, dreaming to escape our suffering
But perhaps this diegesis, was just another farce
Is it truly man’s great weakness, to wanna fly up high into the stars?

It seems awfully convenient, that those in linen robes
Wanna keep the world’s obedience in a stable state of limbo
So f#ck it, fly as high and swoop as low as you would please
Since when the f#ck was what we know transcribed by pricks like Socrates?

You trapped us on an island, and then you left us for dead
We watched the stars with broken hearts, and now we sure as sh#t won’t stand around
These shackles cannot hold us down again
There’s an Icarus in all of us, sick of being the mean

So please tell us the difference between contentedness and complacency
Yeah I call your bluff, we’ve had enough, and there’s no more words to placate me
‘cos there’s an Icarus in all of us, dreaming to take flight with proud wax wingsYou might also like
