Daan - Icon

If you try to be an icon than the icon becomes you
If you try to be a model it'll catwalk over you
If you try to walk in straight shoes than these shoes will bend
You too
If you try to be a kid again the kid will kidnap you
You know it's true
The guy you know well that's just you
And there is nothing you can do
Just a like a door you can't get through
When there is no one left to fool
Don't go and drown in that old pool
Don't kid yourself

So don't try to be an icon, con the 'i' inside of you
That picture you've been painting doesn't look a thing like you
I'll agree that it's a nice try but when your paint is dry
We are all just little icons - super you and super I
You know it's true
The guy you know well that's just you
And there is nothing you can do
Just a like a door you can't get through
When there is no one left to fool
Don't go and drown in that old pool
Don't kid yourself Solo

I need someone to show me just what I threw away
I need a pretty angel to present it on a tray
You never liked the icon, said that guy looked pretty strange
But you never tried to change me and that's how came to change
You know it's true
The guy you know well that's just you
And there is nothing you can do
Just a like a door you can't get through
When there is no one left to fool
Don't go and drown in that old pool
Don't kid yourself

When there is no one left to fool
Don't go and drown in that old pool
Don't kid yourself
