Krista Detor and Arbutus Cunningham - 'Icarus'
Live at the Waldron Arts Center during the CD release (and Benefit for the Nyaka AIDS Orphans) of 'Cover Their Eyes' in April 2009
LYRICS:
Spent the night under the dogstar chasing my tail
All out of things to say - No one to tell anyway
And the ambulance sped down the road in search of a heart
Whose beating had stopped - A life interrupted
Statements were taken and solemnly filed in a drawer
I wish I had known, she said, that hed go off alone
And Icarus fell while no one was looking
We had places to go, and what could we do
He fell out of the sky, disappeared in the blue unending
Maybe its better there on the other side
I hope that it is, for my sake and for his
Its got to be greener, she said, when theyd left with their lights
All gone on their way - Nobody to save today
He should have known better than flying so close to the sun
The wings couldnt hold, but he never did what he was told
And Icarus fell while no one was looking
We had places to go, and what could we do
He fell out of the sky, disappeared in the blue forever
I could have saved him, I could have, just one minute more
Had I thought of it then, but you know how its been,
All this thinking I do lately takes all of my attention.
A minute has passed since the words dropped right off of the page
Nobody to catch them - May I live to at least forget him

Lay Him Down
© Krista Detor, Cover Their Eyes, 2007
On Silver Creek lay him down, (lay him down by the water)
On the banks of the creek (lay him down by the water)
And he'll sing his sorrow from a place that's hotter, lay him down (lay him down)
Lay him down.
Lay him down.
Oh the wage of sin is a place that's hotter,
Lay him down.
To sin and woe lay him down, (lay him down by the water)
A wicked way, did he go (lay him down by the water)
And he sold his soul to a place that's hotter, lay him down,
(lay him down)
Lay him down.
Lay him down.
Oh the wage of sin is a place that's hotter,
Lay him down.
Robert Wright, lay him down, (lay him down by the water)
A bloody night when he fell (lay him down by the water)
through the gates of hell to a place that's hotter, lay him down, (lay him down)
Lay him down.
Lay him down.
Oh the wage of sin is a place that's hotter,
Lay him down.
Child, look away, (lay him down, lay him down by the water)
From the grave that he made (lay him down by the water)
Or he'll sing your sorrow from a place thats hotter lay him down, (lay him down)
Lay him down.
Lay him down.
Oh the wage of sin is a place that's hotter,
Lay him down.
Lay him down.
Lay him down.
