City Light Thief - Helicopter Youth lyrics

Shoulders shrugged Head is heavy Prescious pride Won't help me now No, prescious pride won't help If I was heroic My chance to save a son But maybe this is Where I learn to walk on I am meandering through the gloom Into the cataracts With the wish to make The silence visible But who am I to talk Born a miracle, grown to fit You won't make the same mistakes And we have learned to wait Young and anxious Dumb and blind The truth is not in books The truth is what we find Stutter truths Spit them out Countless verses In veracity Shoulders straight Head is high Prescious fever Will always prevail I will work this boy to d**h So he will grow to be the man As strong, bright, proud and optimistic As the futures grant and then I watch us tie up all loose ends Of casualties we made They now make the strongest cord And we have learned to wait In the crowns of the trees The safest sphere to grow Out of the bones of past ideas Of what a good life was, so long ago
