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
