Helium

My balloon
I filled you up without complaint
Gave you a home, a life, a purpose
Don't forget the breath I take
Although my lungs would be empty
At least you're not about to break
Tied a loop around my wrist to hold you down
Hoped you knew I only did it 'cause I wanted you around
Now I'm afraid to be hopeful
'Cause I found out I was just a rebound

Why would you come over every other night
If you had others on your mind
Patched you up with loving kind
Wasted my air and you wasted my time
Talk about your problems
Never ask for mine
I don't know how you're gonna find
The oxygen to deal with them
I wish that I used helium

Why would you come over every other night
If you had others on your mind

Don't pretend you didn't know how I'd react
Why'd you tell me all your secrets
If you wanna take it back
Looks like your heads getting bigger
Sure hope the rubber doesn't snap
And it's true, I never asked you for a name
I just assumed that I meant something
Give me one other reason you haven't deflated
'Cause I waited, waited, baby

Why would you come over every other night
If you had others on your mind
Patched you up with loving kind
Wasted my air and you wasted my time
Talk about your problems
Never ask for mine
I don't know how you're gonna find
Someone else to deal with them
I wish that I used helium

Wanna watch you fly away
Disappear into the day
Wanna watch you fly away
Disappear into the day
Wanna watch you fly away
Disappear into the day
