[00:11.03] | There were balloons in the sky |
[00:13.86] | When his last night arrived, |
[00:16.77] | He was led to the chaplain of his crime. |
[00:22.24] | They promised him not too much pain, |
[00:25.18] | He begged for them to change, |
[00:28.21] | But the judge declared he couldn’t be saved. |
[00:33.97] | He had no other family |
[00:36.84] | So his legacy would be a space with a number |
[00:39.97] | As sodium cyanide filled the chamber. |
[00:45.76] | Don’t let go |
[00:50.40] | Of your balloon. |
[00:52.21] | Da da da da da |
[00:59.93] | Da da da da |
[01:05.73] | Da da da da |
[01:13.60] | There were balloons in they sky |
[01:16.46] | When he took his own life, |
[01:19.05] | There was love but at school |
[01:21.81] | It was unaccepted. |
[01:24.96] | For the one he longed to kiss |
[01:27.64] | He cried tears as the fists beat him down, |
[01:30.48] | Led him home to finally end it. |
[01:36.02] | And as he lay asleep that night |
[01:38.97] | They told him there’s no |
[01:42.11] | Bigger word than love I can think of. |
[01:47.55] | If there was, I would say it, |
[01:50.93] | Rewind, then replay it |
[01:53.73] | For you, my only. |
[01:56.73] | The note to his mother read, |
[01:58.32] | “I’m so sorry.” |
[02:01.17] | Don’t let go |
[02:03.86] | Of your balloon. |
[02:05.42] | Da da da da da |
[02:08.91] | Da da da da |
[02:16.69] | Da da da da |
[02:28.19] | Flying it up |
[02:29.94] | Through the trees, |
[02:31.14] | Brushing it up against the leaves, |
[02:33.64] | Something, something seemed to fit. |
[02:39.39] | A hundred thousand red balloons he untied, |
[02:42.38] | Took off his shoes, |
[02:46.08] | And jumped |
[02:47.88] | And jumped. |
[02:51.21] | One two three four |
[02:52.86] | Two two three four |
[02:54.50] | Three two three four |
[02:59.49] | Stuff two three |
[03:35.78] | There were balloons in the sky |
[03:38.67] | On the night she survived |
[03:41.60] | As the groups marched through her hometown. |
[03:46.94] | They all yelled patriotic, |
[03:50.04] | In a confused rhetoric, |
[03:53.13] | And they sung for her to go home. |
[03:58.41] | But I am just like you, |
[04:01.70] | I was born and raised amongst you, |
[04:04.54] | So not matter what you put me through , |
[04:07.23] | Your love is hate but my love stays true . |
