[ti:balloon#3]
[ar:the candle thieves]
[al:]
[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 .
[04:10.58] Da da da da da
[05:12.88] Da da da da
[05:24.14] Da da da da
