about

Icarus is a powerful and rebellious twist on the original legend, with love inspiring a new ending.

lyrics

When the sun reveals the day
When the rain has washed away
The tears, the fears, the blackest of years
The light of love will reappear

Melting, melting, blinded, fall
Holding on to nothing at all...
Holding on to nothing at all

We learned to love as days passed by
Soon our love had learned to fly
But when our wingtips touched the sun
We fell to earth as lovers one

Lost by the father, found by the son
Consecrated by the Holy One
On hallowed altars, made alive
There we will strengthen our wings tonight

Melting, melting, blinded, fall
Holding on to nothing at all...
Holding on to nothing at all

Sworn by Zeus to overcome
The failings of the Lesser Ones
To rise again, unfettered fly
With wings of gossamer, touch the sky

Stepping off the temple wall:
Before you fly you have to fall
Then climbing high, we’ll find the way
Our love will melt the sun that day.

about

Timothy Wenzel Midland, Michigan

"Timothy Wenzel is one those composers that go beyond the boundaries of known genres. His recent album Dusk to Diamonds is a convergence of New Age, contemporary, and cinematic themes that results in an absorbing aural experience. Every one of these dozen tracks has a light, delicate touch that seems to ease into the cracks of the broken spirit and fill them with comfort.." - RJ Lannan
