HELICOPTER
North to south
Empty
Running on
Bravado
As if to say, as if to say
As if to say he doesn't like chocolate
He's born a liar, he'll die a liar

Are you hoping for a miracle?
Are you hoping for a miracle?
Are you hoping for a miracle?
Three out of five

I'm thinking six

Are you hoping for a miracle?
Are you hoping for a miracle?
Are you hoping for a miracle?
Are you hoping for a miracle?
(It's not enough)
Are you hoping for a miracle?
(It's not enough)
Are you hoping for a miracle?
(It's not enough)
Are you hoping for a miracle?
(It's not enough)
