carus flew too near the sun

Into the blue his red wax did run

He fell to the earth and sealed the scroll

The daredevil angels unknown would unfold

They are the only ones

The chosen only ones

They are the only ones who are free


Half-human, half-bird ascending so high

No whisper is heard from deep in the sky

On wings as they climb, they beat and they soar

Through space and time towards heaven's door

They are the only ones

The chosen only ones

They are the only ones who are free


In chariots of fury and flame

We head for above to stake out our claim

With radioscopes, electronic eyes

We scan for our hopes in different skies

They are the only ones

The chosen only ones

They are the only ones who are free


Icarus flew too near the sun

Into the blue his red wax did run

He fell to the earth and sealed the scroll

The daredevil angels unknown would unfold

They are the only ones

The chosen only ones

They are the only ones who are free
