Helium

Afraid of falling

Prey to the gods

On whose ground you'll be crawling

A world with no ceiling

The higher you get

The less that you're feeling

Down…



CHORUS:



'Cause you're the HELIUM

In the atmosphere

Yeah the HELIUM

And I'm grounded here

Unlike you- I'm here to stay

'cause I hold the string

That keeps you from floating away



The sky that's between us

Is hiding a fear

That space can't redeem us

It's hard to see through

Why I can't go

Even halfway to meet you

There…



CHORUS



Floating away



Over inflated

You're weighted down

By the world that you hated

I had to lose you

Can't hold on to

The ones who refuse to

… come down



You're the HELIUM

In the atmosphere

Who I really am

Keeps me grounded here

You're the HELIUM

In the atmosphere

Yeah, the HELIUM

And I'm grounded

You're the HELIUM

In the atmosphere

Who I really am

Keeps me grounded here

It took this long – for me to see

That you lift me up

To where I wanted to be

…to where I wanted to be
