Eth - I Know Your Name

The end of the world
Is a part of me
When you're holding my hand
When you're watching me sleep
And I don't know anything
About anything
But I know your name
That's what you say

But you're better off letting me go
Cause I was born to die alone
And darlin' storms will always blow
I'm sorry but I've got to go
Cause when the sunlight hits my wings
You don't know the peace it brings
Daedalus, you're everything
But you're not my king

Armageddon, I'm forgetting
The shape of your face
I pulled your pictures off my wall
And now there's so much empty space
And I don't know anything
About anything
But I know your name
Can you tell me what to say
To get you to stay?

But you're better off letting me go
Cause I was born to die alone
And darlin' storms will always blow
I'm sorry but I've got to go
Cause when the sunlight hits my wings
You don't know the peace it brings
Daedalus, you're everything
But you're not my king

I love you so much more
Than I thought I did before
Hate to think you didn't want to stay
And I hate you for walking away
But if only you could see me now
Living in the same damn town
Sleeping on our old couch
And I'm trying
I'm trying not to drown

But you didn't have to go
You didn't have to leave me alone
We could've called this place our home
But you chose that god damned storm
Wish you never found those wings
I wish you'd seen the pain they'd bring
Icarus, oh
You're not my king
