All My Balloons lyrics

Sing, sing
Oh so sucker for the sugar substitute and artificial flavoring
Small wonder I felt so safe inside nothing more
Than a smoke screen and masquerade
But outside a car bomb s ticking
Inside a car bomb s ticking

The words I wrote are a broken chain
Holding me from the criminally insane
But its gone and there s no stopping
All my balloons are popping

But the tree was not yet down as she lifted the flag
from the bloody ground, whispering:
Gallons of gas and a makeshift cast
And I m still no further from nowhere fast
Listen! Downstairs the doorbell s ringing
We ve been waiting
I ve been waiting

The words I wrote are a broken chain
Holding me from the criminally insane
But its gone and there s no stopping
All my balloons are popping

The words I wrote are a broken chain
Keeping me from the criminally insane
But it s gone and there s no stopping

The words I wrote and the songs I sang
Kept this ship from sinking to its grave
But it s gone and there s no stopping
All my balloons are popping
