Black Balloons - Noy Markel

I’m feeling alright

Sitting here

Writing on this roof

The light’s in my eyes

With these paper pen tattoos

You told me I’m free

You whispered it loudly in the breeze

I thought I could breathe

Holding onto what’s been said

Black balloons

Black balloons

Why is there so much doom?

These black balloons

Black balloons

Black balloons

Why is there so much doom?

These black balloons

In California on the roof so free

I always knew but I could never see

You wanted to turn on the lights for me

I was trying to forget about you

I was trying to let you go

But somehow you were always my go to

When I was lying on the floor

How could I forget about you?

I would never let you go

You’ve showed me fears I’ve held onto

Floating away as black balloons

Black balloons

Black balloons

Why is there so much doom?

These black balloons

Bridge:

These black balloons

Are floating wild

Now I stepped into the fire

I don’t miss the cold

These black balloons

Are floating wild

Yeah it’s been a fucking while

Been way too old

I’m missing home

I’m missing home

Black balloons

I’m missing home

Missing

Part of my soul is missing too

I’m missing home

Missing

Black balloons

Black balloons

These black balloons
