Black Balloon

Baby's black balloon makes her fly

I almost fell into that hole in your life

You're not thinking about tomorrow

'Cause you were the same as me but on your knees

A thousand other boys could never reach you

How could I have been the one?

I saw the world spin beneath you

And scatter like ice from the spoon

That was your womb

Coming down, the world turned over

And angels fall without you there

And I go on as you get colder

Or are you someone's prayer?

You know the lies they always told you

And the love you never knew

Was it things they never showed you?

That swallowed the light from the sun

Inside your room, yeah

Coming down, the world turned over

And Angels fall without you there

And I go on as you get colder

Always someone's prayer

And there's no time left for losing

When you stand, they fall, yeah

Coming down, the world turned over

And angels fall without you there

And I go on as you get colder

All because I'm

Coming down, the years turned over

And Angels fall without you there

And I'll go on and I'll lead you home and

All because I'm

All because I'm

And I'll become what you became to me
