Helicopter Lyrics - Red House Painters [ii] - 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
