You live in a world that is just
Way too strange to conceive
Angel's dressed in black
Most of the people who seem to be
Lost in the dark
- Are they all too real?
Always a good time, never lonely
Suddenly realized the blood red tears from my eyes
There was nothing much
I could do
But watch you die
Time after time
Burnt your wings on the sun
Metal Icarus
First time I met you I wanted
To be by your side
And let my hair grow long
Those days are gone
But I still fly by night
Bringing life to the dead
Even through times when I felt lonely
Suddenly realized the blood red tears from my eyes
There was nothing much I could do
But watch you die
Time after time
Burnt your wings on the sun
Metal Icarus
Night after night
Upon forces unknown
Metal Icarus
Ah! Those were the years
I can still feel the windy heights
Against my skin
And if I close my eyes
I'm flying over hills!
Haha, this was the first heavy metal song I ever enjoyed. I've since gotten into more avante-garde and heavier music, but I can still go back and enjoy the hell out of this song every once in a while. I must have listened to this one song over 500 times by now and I still love every second of it from the great power metal wailing guitars to Matos insanely high pitched tenor voice to the kickass precise drumming, even the funk informed breakdown about mid-way in the song. In my most honest opinion, this is one of the greatest songs ever written. It's utterly flawless from start to finish.
