lost balloon (the anxious attachment blues)

You can tighten the string around your wrist

Sometimes double knots don't fit

And it's hard to admit when your love's set adrift

We can duel with a pistol at dawn

Where neither of you even turns and draws

We just keep walking 'til we can't no more

Wondering when the cancer formed

You can blame it on me

I can blame it on you

We can blame it on time

Ain't none of that true

Can't stitch an old wound

Dead flowers don't bloom

Cause you can't tie down

What you're bound to lose

What you're bound to lose

I got the Anxious Attachment Blues

Flashback disaster

Stuck in a moment Polaroids can't capture

Somewhere between your befores and afters

Watch what summon every ghost ain't Casper

And I wish I could wish I was a kid again

But some memories ain't worth remembering

And I wish I could let it all go

There ain't no diamond inside that coal

You could blame it on me

I could blame it on you

We could blame it on us

Well, maybe that's true

Now we're all out of tune

And it's always high noon

Guess you can't tie down

What you're bound to lose

What you're bound to lose

Too soon too soon too soon

What you're bound to lose

Too soon too soon too soon

What you're bound to lose

Too soon too soon too soon

You're a lost ballon

Now you float on by

Yeah you float on by

Cause I just let you go

Now you float on by

Yeah you float on by

Cause I just let you go
