How can I have a small image next to a line of text?

I have this “chart” kinda thing with lines of text, and I need to put a little icon on each line, like this:

Right now I have a div for each row, containing the icon and text:

```auto
<div class="bar"> <div class="icon"><p class="text">Something</p></div> </div>

```

But as you imagine, the text is just on top of the icon. I feel completely retarded for not coming up with a better solution, aside from putting like 8 spaces before the text. To my credit, I’m very tired and just out of it today. Gøddamn Monday. lol
