Daedalus (Carry You) Lyrics

They say that there's beauty in pain

I don't think I would say the same

Though there is freedom in your words

I can't ignore the hurt

There's something tangible in how

A limb will shatter on the ground

But I've had struggles all the same

Yet you still avoid my name

Fly

I will fly

Despite these weights that you have placed on me

Weights I'll take so you'll be free

Fly

You can fly

But please don't leave me here on the ground

I don't think I will ever know how to carry you

Maybe this is what I've earned

After this time I think I've learned

I'm nothing but a vessel

To lighten other people's loads

I wish we both could learn to take

Instead it's misery we'll make

You'll leave me better than before

So I may fly again no more

Fly

I will fly

Despite these weights that you have placed on me

Weights I'll take so you'll be free

Fly

You can fly

But please don't leave me here on the ground

I don't think I will ever know how to carry you

I'm sorry this is how it ends

We're somehow so much less than friends

And now you've taken what you need

I hope one day you'll spread your wings

Fly

I will fly

Despite these weights that you have placed on me

Weights I'll take so you'll be free

Fly

You can fly

But please don't leave me here on the ground

I don't think I will ever know how to carry you
