about

Nog een demo van de Rockband Eosine.

Icarus, naar de gelijknamige Icarus.
Over de vicieuze cirkel waarin elke generatie probeert te ontsnappen aan de vorige, met uitzondering van die retrofielen die zich verschuilen in geromantiseerde nostalgie ipv het heden te proeven en te beleven. Het was vroeger niet beter, net zoals het nu niet beter is dan in de toekomst, waar een alsook een verdraaide versie zal worden opgehangen van ons heden.
Desalnietemin gaat dit nummer meer over het feit dat elke generatie fouten moet maken om tijdens hun eigen tijdperk eruit te leren, daarna herhaalt de geschiedenis zich gewoon.

lyrics

Don't change the channel son.
This is the best you'll ever see.
Don't reach towards the sun.
It's way too hot. Has always been.

His generation's dying
and youngsters changing, trying.
I guess there's nothing in between.

Somehow I jumped of and flew towards the sparkles in the sun.
All that mattered was a feathered breakout.
I've been here too long.
Should I rather be like father and survive between these walls.
He will die inside a tower.
Plastic flowers are so false.
