Fleet Foxes

Kishore Kumar Hits — Fleet Foxes - Helplessness Blues - Solstice Version lyrics

Artist: Fleet Foxes

album: A Very Lonely Solstice

I was raised up believing
I was somehow unique
Like a snowflake distinct among snowflakes
Unique in each way you can see
But now I do some thinking
I'd say I'd rather be
A functioning cog in some great machinery
Serving something beyond me
But I don't, I don't know what that will be
I'll get back to you someday soon, you will see
♪
What's my name? What's my station?
Oh, just tell me what I should do
I don't need to be kind to the armies of night
That would do such injustice to you
Or bow down and be grateful
And say "Sure, take all that you see"
To the men who move only in dimly-lit halls
And determine my future for me
But I don't, I don't know who to believe
I'll get back to you someday soon, you will see
♪
If I know only one thing
It's that every thing that I see
Of the world outside is so inconceivable
Often, I barely can speak
Yeah, I'm tongue tied and dizzy
And I can't keep it to myself
What good is it to sing helplessness blues?
Why should I wait for anyone else?
And I know, I know you will keep me on the shelf
I'll come back to you someday soon myself
♪
If I had an orchard
I'd work 'til I'm raw
If I had an orchard
I'd work 'til I'm sore
And I could wait tables
While you ran the store
Gold hair in the sunlight
My light in the dawn
If I had an orchard
I'd work 'til I'm sore
If I had an orchard
I'd work 'til I'm sore
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Someday I'll be
Like the man on the screen
