Icarus
Embracing Life's Unpredictable Journey with 'Icarus' by Wild Blue Yonder
Lyrics
What do you do when you can't tie your shoes
Challenges and difficulties arise that seem insurmountable.
All of the knots you know just aren't working
Traditional solutions or methods are ineffective.
How does it feel when you can't take the wheel
Feeling powerless and unable to control the direction of life.
Because the car you're in is already turning
Being caught up in circumstances beyond one's control.
Don't slow it down
Advocating for perseverance and forward focus despite challenges.
Just focus on the road
Encouraging concentration on the present moment.
This life is over before we know
Highlighting the transient nature of life.
And maybe that's the reason I can't fly
Expressing a sense of limitation or groundedness.
I'd get to high
Fear of reaching great heights due to potential negative consequences.
And does the sun ever pass the moon
Pondering on celestial relationships and interactions.
Well I wonder what the sun would say
Curiosity about the perspective of the sun in relation to the moon.
He'd probably ask about her night
Imagining the sun inquiring about the moon's experiences.
And the moon would ask about her day
Reciprocal curiosity between the sun and the moon.
Think of the sun
Reflecting on the positive and carefree nature of the sun.
Always in a bright mood
Describing the sun as consistently optimistic.
Gets to see the world everyday with nothing to lose
Envying the sun's freedom and lack of burdens.
And maybe that's the reason I can't fly
Linking personal limitations to the inability to soar like the sun.
I'd get too high
Fear of experiencing negative consequences if reaching too high.
The more you think the less you'll know
Emphasizing the potential drawbacks of overthinking.
And the more you know the more you'll think
Highlighting the paradox of knowledge leading to increased uncertainty.
I want to float with the flow of where the wind blows
Desiring to go with the natural flow of life.
Wherever it takes me I'll go
Willingness to embrace the unpredictable journey ahead.
But in the end
Contemplating the legacy and impact of one's existence.
What is left of our living
Considering what remains after life's experiences.
I'll make do with what I've been given
Accepting and making the best of the given circumstances.
Maybe that's the reason I can't fly
Reiterating the theme of personal limitations in achieving great heights.
I'd get too high
Fear of facing adverse consequences if aspiring too high.
