Emperor - An Elegy Of Icaros lyrics

For I possess the wings of faith

Though, heavy on my shoulders

(No measurement can prove their weight)

Still, a burden are they not to me

I am the challenger of gravity

The fear is not the fate I seek

My destiny will build upon

The mighty turbulence beyond

If I fall I will rise again

Some of envy

Some of fear

Admonish by the graves of those who fell

Praise the fool that pure of heart

Leaps off your finger

Into grace

Icaros, your voice once melted

Into the choir of the fallen ones

I have heard, I have seen

The purity of their song

Icaros

You fate embrace

A manifold of angels

I summon thee

From shattered graves

And call upon the wind

Receive my bow of reverence

Then spread your wings

And fly into oblivion
