A SONG FOR ICHARUS June 2017

Let me down

I know I cannot hit that high

Bring me down

It’s not a place that I can live

Please kill this climb so fast it dies

Let me down

The clamber can’t be comprehended

Backward space can’t be transcended

Disappoint me now may I descend

We always know the top’s the end

Let me down

You know I cannot scale that sky

Bring me down

It’s not a place where I can live

Please kill this climb so fast it dies inside my mind

Let me down

The undermost should be by home

The bottom rock fell on my head

I’ll burrow in the basic basement

Content a life with no event

Please bury me some more……… Bury me some more

Let me down

You know I cannot crucify

Bring me down

It’s not a place where I can live

Please kill this climb so fast it dies inside my mind before the time

Let me down

It’s safer sinking sliding, let me scramble off your shoulders

I can’t fall fast enough fail fast I can’t let fate fare bolder

Take me below with words you know will mar me

Lacerate me harm me strike me now and scar me

Bust me up to keep me down now

I’ll clutch the ground now

Please bury me some more…….. Bury me some more

Let me down

You know it tore me up to try

Bring me down

I never should have tried to glide

It’s not a place where I can live

My childish strive can you forgive me

Please kill this climb so fast it dies inside my mind before the time will find me rising

Let me down

Let me down

Let me down

Please kill this climb so fast it dies inside my mind before the time will find me rising

We always know the top’s the end.
