Modern Icarus Video (MV)

Let me tell you there are world war tensions
With tendencies for genocide
The spoiled kids on the block
Lost their cool this time
I hate to infect that pile of bones
With something so lackluster

Everybody wants what nobody can have
Lighting fireworks in response to rejects
And your failed attempts to fly
Higher and higher
You know you can only get so close to the sun

Broken mirrors
Everywhere
Broken mirrors
Everywhere

Another shaded prophecy now turning on itself
Lost the host it dwelled upon
A memory a ghost
Get low
And get so cynical
Feel the underworld start to drag you down by your throat
Everybody wants what nobody can have
Lighting fireworks in response to rejects
And your failed attempts to fly
Higher and higher
You know you can only get so close to the sun

You can only get so close
For all you know it burned out waiting for you
You'll never know the light it brings
For feel the warmth it sheds
You will only know darkness
The cold and the dead
You'll never know the light it brings
For feel the warmth it sheds
You will only know darkness
The cold and the dead
