Chasing Balloons
When it comes to me
It's over in a moment's time
I stop to think
But suddenly it slips my mind
Like it was scooped with a spoon
And tied up to a balloon
Vanished over the edge
While I was pacing the room
Wide awake
A shadow in the dead eyed dawn
Distractedly
I turn around and it's long gone
Swept up in a blanket of blue
And tied up to a balloon
Vanished over the edge
While I was pacing the room
It floats away
It just floats away
It just floats away
As soon as it comes to me
I think of better things to do
I leave it there
And tell it that I'll be back soon
And lock it into a tomb
That I can later exhume
By then it will have decayed
While I was pacing the room
It floats away
It just floats away
It just floats away
While I'm here watching
Cold blood circling the drain
Cold blood circling the drain
What's more?
The stains are on the tile
What's more?
These days go on for miles
I've hit the wall
I've dropped the ball
Searching for truth?
Chasing balloons
I've hit the wall
I've dropped the ball
Searching for truth?
Chasing balloons
Chasing balloons
It's over in a moment's time
I stop to think
But suddenly it slips my mind
Like it was scooped with a spoon
And tied up to a balloon
Vanished over the edge
While I was pacing the room
Wide awake
A shadow in the dead eyed dawn
Distractedly
I turn around and it's long gone
Swept up in a blanket of blue
And tied up to a balloon
Vanished over the edge
While I was pacing the room
It floats away
It just floats away
It just floats away
As soon as it comes to me
I think of better things to do
I leave it there
And tell it that I'll be back soon
And lock it into a tomb
That I can later exhume
By then it will have decayed
While I was pacing the room
It floats away
It just floats away
It just floats away
While I'm here watching
Cold blood circling the drain
Cold blood circling the drain
What's more?
The stains are on the tile
What's more?
These days go on for miles
I've hit the wall
I've dropped the ball
Searching for truth?
Chasing balloons
I've hit the wall
I've dropped the ball
Searching for truth?
Chasing balloons
Chasing balloons
