An Elegy Of Icaros Lyrics

The song An Elegy Of Icaros is performed by Emperor in the album named IX Equilibrium in the year 1999 .



Icaros, I dare you.
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.
Asmonish 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. Your fate embrace. A manifold of angels.
I summon thee from shattered graves, and call upon the wind.
Recieve my bow of reverence.
Then spread your wings, and fly into oblivion.
