Landscape with the Fall of Icarus - Hord

Shivering I’m on the brink of collapse

Shall I plunge into the depth?

Accept to lose the control?

Shall I?

I do!

Journey through the unknown

Journey from which there is no return for me

There is no more prospect but this fall in

The deep green sea

I’ve burned my wings for having

Wanted to light up your souls

My soul

Wave after wave

Melted wax is carried away

Wave after wave

My feathers are drifted away

I’m dismembered

When Icarus fell in Bruegel’s picture

He didn’t change the colour of the sea

The colour of the sun

I’ve turned all into black

Blackened the light

Plunged everything into darkness

Altered the map of the structure

Reversed the order of all things

Dragged down by the flood

Atoning my faults

I disappear

Wave after wave

Melted wax is carried away

Wave after wave

My feathers are drifted away

I’m dismembered

When Icarus fell in Bruegel’s picture

He didn’t change the colour of the sea

The colour of the sun

I’ve turned all into black

Blackened the light

Plunged everything into darkness

Altered the map of the structure

Reversed the order of all things
