You made me young, by Icarus

You made me young

Took away all my excuses

You brought me to life

Demolished ever inhibition

You taught me to love

I didn’t even believe in all that

You filled me with desire

Like I hadn’t ever wanted anything before

Are you the person I met? The person I fell in love with? Were you really just someone else; Trying to be what you thought I w… Are you anyone?

I can no longer trust my mind not to betray me, and devour me To bury me with thoughts of insecu… Was it love was it something else

Self Determination It’s never free There is always a cost Self determination Requires

You drew me too deep inside.Only to cast me away. Playing

Who am I now? I’m not the man I was before You’ve changed something Done something big You’ve opened up a door

There’s a hollow place Where your heart belongs Its vacuous emptiness Drains all compassion Consumes without satiation

I thought I was the adult I had the years that is without question But experience and wisdom Those were yours

I want to have it all A full meal with all the flavors Of the single morsel You fed me

Everyone thinks they know what is best. The path they have chosen Must fit all. Knowledge of Right and wrong

For an instant I touched it Greatness was upon me I wonder Do you know it?

It has never changed My heart’s inclination. I am still drawn to you. Having known you I cannot see you

I’m not sure whether I love or ha… The me I am because of you You reminded me How good it felt To feel without reserve

Why won’t it go away This feeling of emptiness That you left in your wake I keep hoping I will get over you It took so little to ensnare you…

Does it really matter Whose fault it was What’s been done Can’t be undone Anyways

Too long trapped Hopeless and caged Owned and enraged I saw a way out Extinguished my apathy
