歌曲名 Icarus Ii 歌手名 Kansas

In the darkness I rise, long before the dawn,

I was dreaming of home and the life I led.

I can hear the sound, of the engines roar,

And I crave the embrace of my empty bed,

where I'm safe.

But the call is clear, and the task is set,

And my enemies wait in the dark sky.

Do they fear the same fear, do they dream like us,

Do they long for the day when it's over

and they're safe?

We are cruising above the horizon

Never knowing if we will return

In a moment we'll loose the destruction

And we'll justify all that we burn

Here the air is cold, but my thoughts are clear,

And so I'm wondering why I must be here.

Must be answered in kind 'til it disappears

and we're safe.

Now we're cruising above the horizon,

Never knowing if we will return.

In a moment we'll rain down destruction,

And we'll justify all that we burn.

Dodging all the tracers, sky is full of lead,

I can see the pilots' faces.

Safety in our numbers, Eagles overhead,

We are in the sight of aces.

Flak, bursting all around!

Friends, going down in flames!

Now we're hit, it's happened, this is what I feared.

Though it should be panic, I can feel a peace.

Strangely, now I know my purpose

Hey boys! Hey, get out while you can,

I'll try to take us home,

I'm going home
