Helium

Album: Steadman's Wake (2021)
  • Helium light and partially raised
    I still remember the sight, and I was amazed
    Minimum cool and oxygen spent
    I still remember the speed of my own descent

    And the what we’d never known, turned to what we’d never know
    And your somewhere out there’s where I’d really like to go

    And there’re things that couldn’t be real
    I’m lighter than helium

    It must have been warm
    Your top was still down
    I still remember the way
    To that side of town

    And the message that I sent wasn’t what I really meant
    And my cast off, blast off, hats off, wasn’t time well spent

    And there’re things that couldn’t be real
    I’m lighter than helium

    And the what we’d never been, turned to what we’d never be
    And that school boy, fool boy, new boy, wasn’t really me

    And there’re things that couldn’t be real
    I’m lighter than helium Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind
