Sometimes I let my thoughts run wild building cities of anxiety in my mind. I forget how beautiful the unknown is and instead of letting go, I hold on tighter. This is about a moment of finally letting go of fears
Verse 1:
I'm feeling alright
Sitting here
Writing on this roof
The light's in my eyes
With these paper pen tattoos
You told me I'm free
You whispered it loudly in the breeze
I thought I could breathe
Holding onto what's been said
Chorus:
Black balloons
Black balloons
Why is there so much doom?
These black balloons
Black balloons
Black balloons
Why is there so much doom?
These black balloons
Verse 2:
In California on the roof so free
I always knew but I could never see
You wanted to turn on the lights for me
I was trying to forget about you
I was trying to let you go
But somehow you were always my go to
When I was lying on the floor
How could I forget about you?
I would never let you go
You've showed me fears I've held onto
Floating away as black balloons
Chorus:
Black balloons
Black balloons
Why is there so much doom?
These black balloons
Bridge:
These black balloons
Are floating wild
Now I stepped into the fire
I don't miss the cold
These black balloons
Are floating wild
Yeah it's been a fucking while
Been way too old
I'm missing home
I'm missing home
Black balloons
I'm missing home
Missing
Part of my soul is missing too
I'm missing home
Missing
Black balloons
Black balloons
These black balloons
