Oh you had your wings of wax and feathers
And you were stuck up there like honey
let loose your tethers, out of the tree of money
You jumped from the cliff, or were you pushed?
I saw you gliding up over the horizon
You've been flying too close to the sun
Oh you wanted to be a God, didn't you
You wanted to steal the secret of fire
You wanted the best of both worlds
Didn't you?
Now you can see pride comes before a fall
As you tried to fly higher and higher
All your plans have come undone
You've been flying too close to the sun
Oh well the time will come when you will learn
But not until your wings will burn
And you'll fall back down to Earth
What goes up must come down
Don't you know there are many more like you
And you're not the only one
You've been flying too close to the sun
