Icarus II

In the darkness

I rise, long before

The dawnI was dreaming of home and the life

ILedI can hear the sound, of the engines

RoarAnd I crave the embrace of my

Empty bedWhere

I'm safe (there I'm safe)

But the call is clear, and the task is

SetAnd my enemies wait in the dark sky

Do they fear the same fear,

Do they dream like us

Do they long for the day when it's

OverAnd they're safe

We are cruising above the horizon

Neve knowing if we will return

In a moment we'll loose the

Destruction

And we'll justify all that we burn

Here the air is cold, but my thoughts

Are clearAnd so

I'm wondering why

I must beHere

For the evil that can come,

From the heart of a man

Must be answered in kind 'til it

Disappears

And we're safe

Now we're cruising above the horizon

Neve knowing if we will return

In a moment we'll rain down

Destruction

And we'll justify all that we burn

Here they come

Dodging all the tracers, sky is full of

LeadI can see the pilots' faces

Safety in our numbers, eagles

OverheadWe are in the sight of aces

Flak, bursting all around

Friends, going down in flames

Now we're hit, it's happened

This is what

I fearedSomething's telling me my time has

ComeThough it should be panic,

I can feel

A peaceStrangely, now

I know my purpose...

Hey boys!

Hey, get out while you

CanI'll try to take us home

I'm going home...
