“Helicopters” Song Lyrics
From the album, Captiva, by Falling Up
I couldn't have stopped it or stayed awake

I landed here to breathe

But I never felt this strange
Await for an inlay to monitor
But notice that my hands shake and my vision blurred
Dimming till the lights off, dimming till the lights off
