Heavy Balloon

[Verse 1]

People like us, we play with a heavy balloon

We keep it up to keep the devil at bay, but it always falls way too soon

People like us, we play with a heavy balloon

We keep it up to keep the devil at bay, but it always falls way too soon

People like us, we play with a heavy balloon

We keep it up to keep the devil at bay, but it always falls way too soon

[Chorus]

I spread like strawberries (I spread like strawberries)

I climb like peas and beans (I climb like peas and beans)

I've been sucking it in so long

That I'm busting at the seams

I spread like strawberries (I spread like strawberries)

I climb like peas and beans (I climb like peas and beans)

I've been sucking it in so long

That I'm busting at the seams

[Verse 2]

In the middle of the day, it's like the sun

But the Saharan one, it's staring me down

Forcing all forms of life inside of me to retreat underground

It grows relentless like the teeth of a rat

It's just got to keep on gnawing at me

And it constricts like a boa on a hose, nothing flows

So the pressure grows instead of the seed

[Verse 3]

People like us get so heavy and so lost sometimes

So lost and so heavy that the bottom is the only place we can find

You get dragged down, down to the same spot enough times in a row

The bottom begins to feel like the only safe place that you know

But you know what?

[Chorus]

I spread like strawberries (I spread like strawberries)

I climb like peas and beans (I climb like peas and beans)

I've been sucking it in so long

That I'm busting at the seams

I spread like strawberries (I spread like strawberries)

I climb like peas and beans (I climb like peas and beans)

I've been sucking it in so long

That I'm busting at the seams

[Outro]

(I spread like strawberries), I spread like strawberries

I climb like (I climb like peas and beans)

I spread like strawberries

I climb like peas and beans

I spread like strawberries

I climb like peas and beans (That I'm busting at the seams)

I spread like strawberries

I climb like peas and beans
