When love's young dream has let you down
|
All you want is escape
|
But you're all
|
Talk, talk - let your tongue masturbate
|
Talk, talk - who controls their own fate?
|
Talk, talk - 'til the words run down your face and into mine
|
"Things just went wrong too many times"
|
Lies are not freedom
|
|
We're lighter than air
|
We talk without sound
|
We think without thought
|
Our feet don't touch the ground
|
And we don't wish on stars
|
We shoot them down, yes
|
When we inhale
|
When we inhale
|
We are hilarious
|
Helium
|
|
Tonight's the night for us to prove absolutely nothing
|
Time and again and again
|
'Cause we're all
|
Talk, talk - words alone cannot win
|
Talk, talk - and the lies might sink in
|
Talk, talk - it could almost mean something
|
But it's just words
|
In the half-light between binge and purge
|
We are senseless forever
|
|
We're lighter than air...
|
|
You call this "home", but it stinks
|
It stinks
|
Well, maybe home is where the heart is
|
But if I cared about my heart then I'd quit smoking
|
If I cared about my heart then I'd quit puking
|
Let's burn this town to the ground
|
|
We're lighter than air...
|
|
We're on the run from something we cannot leave behind
|
And we run 'cause we're too scared and too cheap to fly
|
We don't face our problems, we just complicate them
|
When we inhale
|
When we inhale
|
It's desperation
|
|
Helium.
