He had a misanthrope for a dad |
|
Who crushed any hope he might have had |
|
When he was just a boy |
|
Clothed in a cloak of bitterness |
|
He wandered through the wilderness in search of something to destroy |
|
Like Icarus, he flew too close to the sun |
|
To the sun |
|
I can understand why someone can go over to the dark side |
|
'cause the devil, he's got all the tunes |
|
And someone once said if you're not living on the edge, |
|
then you are taking up too much room |
|
Like Icarus, he flew too close to the sun |
|
I know he fell |
|
But for a while there, he must have had some fun |
|
Yeah, he must have had some fun |
|
Yeah, he must have had some fun |
|
In a world of such confusion, contradiction, and delusion, |
|
We all can have a heavy heart |
|
A certain symbiosis, paranoia, feeds psychosis |
|
It can cause a man to fall apart |
|
Like Icarus, he flew too close to the sun |
|
I know he fell down, |
|
But I know that he is not the only one |
|
No, he's not the only one |
|
If you don't shoot, |
|
then you don't score |
|
I know that for sure |
|
I know that for sure |
|
If you don't shoot, |
|
then you don't score |
|
I know that for sure |
|
I know that for sure |
|
He had a misanthrope for a dad |
|
Who crushed any hope he might have had |
|
When he was just a boy |
