  5. As the sun breaks above the groundAn old man stands on the hillAs the ground warms to the first rays of lightA birdsong shatters the still His eyes are ablazeSee the madman in his gaze Fly on your way like an eagleFly as high as the sunOn your wings like an eagleFly and touch the sun Now the crowd breaks and a young boy appearsLook the old man in his eyesAs he spreads his wings and shouts at the crowdIn the name of God my father I fly His eyes seem so glazedAs he flies on the wings of a dreamNow he knows his father betrayedNow his wings burn to ashes to ashes his grave Fly on your way like an eagleFly as high as the sun On your wings like an eagleFly and touch the sun Flight of Icarus , Iron Maiden
