Reckless Angel

One single man's desire
An entire mankind's dream
To fly over the skies
Above the hills and seas.

No matter what you think
No matter what you plan
You're gonna drown and sink
You're gonna burn like hell.

And in the end
What's this all about?
To escape from the world
To be far from the crowd?

No, it's too late
For this to happen
This mortal coil
It's a burden of men!

Fly away
Reckless angel
Icarus' fate
Mankind's dream.

Fly away
Close your eyes
You're not that far
If you don't look down.

And then one mortal day
You look back and see
What you've made of your life
What became of your deeds.

All that you might have built
All that you might have planned
All that you thought was real
A step away from Sun
And now it's all gone
No phoenix from ashes
Sail back to your world
While your ship crashes!

Father don't cry
You gave me the wings
I chose my own death
My desires are fulfilled.

Now I will rest
In the depth of the ocean
Now I fear no pain
Now I'm really free!

Fly away
Reckless angel
Icarus' fate
Mankind's dream.

Fly away
Close your eyes
You're not that far
If you don't look down.
