Slightly - Peter Lyrics




He's the intrepid one, holds fast to all he knows
Watch him as he tries to grow, he runs faster than anyone
He's the intrepid one, arrived here on his own
He doesn't trust. He doesn't trust. He doesn't trust anyone
He grew up fast and he grew up strong
Without a dad it don't take long
On a priceless gust of wind, holding tight to his carpet ride
He was swept away, come to his new home

He can't remember what it was like In his past life
He can't remember his past life, what it was like before he held his first knife

He hates the things they say to him, shouts from beneath their bridges
It's chaos and it's heartbreak and he's only twelve years old
He knows the forecast and he needs some bread now
And he held the key once in a dream that washed away
And he built a wall, but they'd never let him anyway
They never loved him anyway
They made him run there anyway
His spirit's gonna fade away if magic don't come soon
His head is harder than anyone and he's seen the deep maroon
He's seen blood and fear, stole the key to his life story
His eyes dried up at fourteen and he prayed they'd just ignore him
He let loose cannons and he met his love
And he blew it and he lost it and tried to get above
Sticks and stones, broken molds, lost cause, lost hope
He lost home and he found home and he'd never be alive again

But he can't remember what it was like in his past life
He can't remember his past life, what it was like before he held his first knife

He's the intrepid one, these little kids need him now
It's time to be the big man. It's time to be the one
He's the intrepid one, he leads them into battle
Saddle up, kid, put your work boots on
Loved a girl once, and he knew they'd be together forever
But the weather couldn't resist
His lonely Sunday morning when his storm arrived
It's probably best he can't remember her as he looks this pirate right into his eyes
