I'll absolutely do a more in depth and cohesive look through this song but I adore I, Carrion and I need to talk about it.
The way Hozier manages to convey the feeling of wonder and freedom and newness of Icarus raking to the skies. The tragedy of Icarus' beloved being his own undoing? The way Icarus so easily accepts his end, as if he can die happily having now known the love he's never before had? The desperation in the way Icarus prays that should he fall, he is still able to cling to his love til the very end?

And God this bridge? The way Icarus acknowledges that he isn't and never could be apart of the world he's known to love. Allow the ground to find its brutal way to me? You expect me to be normal after hearing that?
