Helicopter - Red House Painters

Helicopter falls to my

Calm virgin island

It said I want to show you

New clouds and new sky

From shore to sun

We’ll soar like one

Brave martyr pilot

So that I can know you

Outside our cold-winded earth

Feel part of your desolate pain

Taste what has made you grow

At once with your oddness you enlighten

My slow unnurtured brain

Be mine for a day

Let your lids shut out that bad focus

To die in a storm

Holding you in my last hour

Our burning flesh will blow over

Some nightmare sea

Daylight won’t find a trace

Where heaven finds us

Living eyes won’t find a sign

Where peace will hear our prayers
