an ode to a friend lyrics

I want to give you this (huh?) A gift from me, to you Oh, thank you Well? What is it for? It's your own personal escape button, hehe Wow, uh, what does that mean? Well, just press it, it makes a noise (Click) (Help me) Icarus sits, in blissful unknowing That his favorite creation was not built to last Day and night, they would soar past the clouds But alas Wax wings melt to dust, the connection is severed What you said left me crushed (What have you done?) I beg, and I bargain- could it not last forever? I plead, to deaf ears, to no God But, if I could not have you then why must they take you From all of the things that I knew? After all of the wasted years, how could I stay in this place? Living lies that I thought were the truth Time keeps on ticking, my lips I keep licking At the thought of you, one bite and I'm through As I twiddle my fingers, I let the thought linger That all that I need, is You (I miss you)
