Helicopter Lights

from adolescence by Scott Lemoine

/

lyrics

Helicopter lights descend across the sky at nighttime
Over the silky glow of streetlights I watch you
Paint the cloudy canvas
This passive adoration drives me mad
So I fabricate a life a love we had
Supposedly

Helicopter blades extending lift above my sadness
Under their frenzied whirl I’m insecure
In the stillness that I’ve gained
A solitary pilot in the night
Underneath your brush a stroke of light
And there it goes

On and on and on and on and on

Helicopter radio’s gone dead there’s no one listening
I’m all alone inside the cockpit
Flying in your window on the world
You’re lost in constellations much too far
While here I hover imitating stars
You’ll never see

Helicopter soars and here I am
And there it is
And there you are
Colouring your sketches of my world
That define my every moment
And so it goes

On and on and on and on and on

Helicopter lights go out across the sky at night time
Over the silky glow of streetlights I watch you
Paint me into darkness
