I, Carrion (Icarian) lyrics

• Copyright: Jennifer Decilveo, Hozier

  ---

  If the wind turns, if I hit a squall
  Allow the ground to find its brutal way to me

  I feel lighter than I have in so much time
  I've crossed the border line of weightless
  One deep breath out from the sky
  I've reached a rarer height now that I can confirm
  All our weight is just a burden offered to us by the world

  And though I burn how could I fall?
  When I am lifted by every word you say to me

  If anything could fall at all, it's the world
  That falls away from me

  You have me floatin' like a feather on the sea
  While you're as heavy as the world
  That you hold your hands beneath
  Once I had wondered what was holdin' up the ground
  But I can see that all along, love, it was you all the way down

  Leave it now, I am sky-bound
  If you need to, darling, lean your weight to me

  We'll float away, but if we fall
  I only pray, don't fall away from me

  I do not have wings, love, I never will
  Soarin' over a world you are carryin'
  If these heights should bring my fall
  Let me be your own
  Icarian carrion
  If the wind turns, if I hit a squall
  Allow the ground to find its brutal way to me

  If I should fall, on that day
  I only pray, don't fall away from me
