Daedalus (World Falling Down)

Watching helplessly

All our legacy

Its disintegration

Flying too close to the sun

Burning in perigee

Our whole world is falling down

Sickened atrophy

Of society

Can’t stop what we’ve begun

We’ve turned our beloved sons

Into commodities

Great towers coming down

Statues broken on the ground

Burning our history

Cracked column, broken plinth

Palace and labyrinth

Sinking into the sea

Our whole world is falling down

Smashed beyond repair

Feathers everywhere

My whole world is falling down

Smashed beyond repair

Ashes everywhere

Watching helplessly

Sinking in the sea
