Up on the building
From down on the pavement
Or out in the crowd?
Can you see me
In the glare of the lamppost?
'Cause I am walking a tightrope
Into the moon
I don't want to feel so different
But I don't want to be insignificant, and I
Don't know how to see the same things different
Now
Oh can you see me?
I am one in a million
Yeah, I'm Icarus falling
Out of the sun
Could you see me fall in the light of spotlights and jackknife
Through night as black as a bedroom
And white as a lie?
I don't want to feel so different
But I don't want to be insignificant, and I
Don't know how to see the same things different
Now
Diving through the dark
While the night turns blue
Hey
Are you aware of your intentions?
Because I wear my intentions
So clear
If you see me
Wading through water
Come drown in the river
Right in front of the world
You can wash your face and hands
In the stream of my anger
It's as bright as white paper
And as dark as a girl
I don't want to feel so different
But I don't want to be insignificant, and I
Don't know how to see the same things different
Now
Can you see me Up on the building From down on the pavement Or out in the crowd? Can you see me In the glare of the lamppost? 'Cause I am walking a tightrope Into the moon I don't want to feel so different But I don't want to be insignificant, and I Don't know how to see the same things different Now Oh can you see me? I am one in a million Yeah, I'm Icarus falling Out of the sun Could you see me fall in the light of spotlights and jackknife Through night as black as a bedroom And white as a lie? I don't want to feel so different But I don't want to be insignificant, and I Don't know how to see the same things different Now Diving through the dark While the night turns blue Hey Are you aware of your intentions? Because I wear my intentions So clear If you see me Wading through water Come drown in the river Right in front of the world You can wash your face and hands In the stream of my anger It's as bright as white paper And as dark as a girl I don't want to feel so different But I don't want to be insignificant, and I Don't know how to see the same things different Now Explain Request ×
