From the recording Illumine
Lyrics
Sun in the Sky
I warned you my child
But you’re so stubborn, never listen to me, my son.
Freedom was yours for the taking, but you threw it away, forsaken
Calling out for my help
Crying out in fire and hell
Foolish boy with a mind elsewhere
You’re dying now, your soul withers and tears
Why couldn’t you heed my warning, you didn’t hear me calling for you
Melting my creation
For a waning fascination
I should have tied you down
Hope that soars is hope that hits the ground
Never listened, child of the sun
Wings of wax will come undone
Escaping a love that set you free
Closed eyes never see
You are the fallen
Your luck on a fragile framework
Now your wings are burning
Delivering you back down to Earth
You reject and call me fool, now look around you're a fool too!
Heavenward eyes cast burning wings, bringing you back to earthly things.
Falling through an endless sky
Child of the sun
Wings of wax will come undone
Escaping a love that set you free
From me you will flee
Out of control, momentum gains
Higher and higher, it's insane
Impetus drive you, and pride grows
Where pride takes you we all know
You are the fallen
Your luck on a fragile framework
Now your wings are burning
Delivering you back down to Earth
The Burning Wings (I should have tied you down)
Your end they bring (Hope that soars is hope that hits the ground)
