The Flight of the Red Balloon

from To: Moon, From: Sun by Emo Side Project

lyrics

Little red balloon,
You probably think that no one knows just what you thought of
When she let go of you that Wednesday evening
When the storms were gathering

I wanna let you know that we're all toys in our own way
Some just don't know it yet
But I definitely know how you fucking felt
When the tension on your string was relieved
And you were left to drift off unwillingly into the sky

But not to the stars
And not to the moon
Into the cackling storm that sat mocking you
For being so, so fucking breakable; so fucking mortal

Little red balloon:
I still believe in you and what you were made for
To make someone smile


So here's the secret
I thought I'd keep it
But I'd rather spill my voice into these sound waves
That little red balloon was me
And the girl that let go was you two months ago.

I'll just it sing low so you won't know.

In time we all drift away.
