Miss Black America Helium Lyrics

Helium Lyrics

When love's young dream has let you down



All you want is escape



But you're all 



Talk, talk - let your tongue masturbate



Talk, talk - who controls their own fate?



Talk, talk - 'til the words run down your face and into mine



"Things just went wrong too many times"



Lies are not freedom







We're lighter than air



We talk without sound



We think without thought



Our feet don't touch the ground



And we don't wish on stars



We shoot them down, yes



When we inhale



When we inhale



We are hilarious



Helium







Tonight's the night for us to prove absolutely nothing 



Time and again and again



'Cause we're all 



Talk, talk - words alone cannot win



Talk, talk - and the lies might sink in



Talk, talk - it could almost mean something



But it's just words



In the half-light between binge and purge



We are senseless forever







We're lighter than air...







You call this "home", but it stinks



It stinks



Well, maybe home is where the heart is



But if I cared about my heart then I'd quit smoking



If I cared about my heart then I'd quit puking



Let's burn this town to the ground







We're lighter than air...







We're on the run from something we cannot leave behind



And we run 'cause we're too scared and too cheap to fly



We don't face our problems, we just complicate them



When we inhale



When we inhale



It's desperation







Helium.
