Lyrics
balloon ride
such a long flight
on a balloon ride
when you're looking at them all
walk in small lines
in the streets like
they couldn't find the doors
such a long ride
on this balloon flight
when you're looking at the storms
i get caught up
in the power lines
when i move onto your lawn
and all of their lights
losing their shine
losing their minds
all over the ground
panic and pride
it’s a panic macho fight
you will watch me blow away
from the landmines in your hands
and i’m satisfied
in the sky
outside
the landmines
satisfied
in the sky
outside
the landmines
you will watch me blow away
from the landmines in the sand
and i’m satisfied
in the sky
outside
the landmines
satisfied
in the sky
outside
the landmines
strange reaction
you know i could not
listen too long
to all the random
thoughts you’re taught
and outside i could not
stand for too long
in your finest
sunday clothes
what if i
created my
own strange reaction
decided i
didn’t like
the style of your smile
and outside i could not
wait for the storm
that same storm you’re
waiting for
and that book i could not
find anymore
in your hotel
corner drawer
well, what if i
created my
own strange reaction
decided i
just didn’t like
the color of your eyes
well i don’t see the god
that you’re speaking of
is intolerant love
really love at all
well i don’t see the god
you’ve been preaching of
maybe you’re making up
some strange reaction
i don’t see any good
in the bombs that you drop
the intolerant side
of some maniac mind
you know i could not
sit here for too long
through all your random
strange reactions
and i’ll walk away
i’ll be right back again
i’ll walk away
she’s on
well she’s on
right now
she’s on
the town
take me back where you come from
just let me follow you back home
i’ll buy a ticket to your game
i’ll stand in line ‘til i get in
i’ll stand in line
i got no sense of time
well she’s on
right now
she gone
and she down
she’s on i got no time to waste
and i’ll stand in line just for a taste
they put you at the top of ten
i’ll stand in line ‘til i get in
i’ll stand in line
i got no sense of pride
she’s on
right now
well she gone
and she down
well she’s a flight risk any day
she’ll be the one that got away
just leave a light on
just leave a sign
we’ll she’s on
right now
facing away
time is all
and time is good enough for me
but i can't hear you when you're
facing away
and it's all
it's always fine by me
but i can't hear you when you're
facing away
in all your words
there are always lines that i can read
subtitles changed
i saw those phrases rearranged
you always walk
so much faster than your feet
i can’t hear you when you’re
facing away
pick out your voice
while all these other people speak
i try to play every sentence into phase
i can't hear you when you’re
facing away
time is all
and time is good enough for me
but i can't hear you when you're
facing away
and it’s all
it’s always fine by me
but i can't hear you when you're
facing away
time is fine by me
but i can’t hear you when you’re
facing away
see it again
laying since after then
another night here just
laying my bones at rest
with the brightest smile just
laying in a daze
want to storm back there
and rip out that page
want to save it for mine
i want to see it again
light a fire on my hand
and i want to lie on my back
watch it all fly
over my head
wandering around nine to five
wandering from night to day
i want it written on my face
want it stained onto my bones
i want to see it again
light a fire on my hand
i want a sign on my back
i want to steal it
i want to sign right back on
i want to bust through shouting
from my megaphone
i want to slide right back around
i want to paint dumb words
all over the town
i want to see it again
light a fire on my hand
and i want to lie on my back
watch it all fly
rolling out of bed
i can no longer sleep
for too long
every day the dawn
wakes me up
now i wake up thinking
so hard
something makes the
daylight so strong
well there’s something in my head
that keeps me rolling out of bed
is it something that you said
is it something that you said
i don’t remember when
i forgot
too many days of thinking
about it all
well there’s something in my head
that keeps me rolling out of bed
is it something that you said
is it something that you said
win win situation
(instrumental)
skinny little dimebag
(instrumental)
perfect time
after the noise
from the bombs fade away
after the sound
of the maniacs fade
what a time i’ll have
living again
i’m walking away from the
satan brigade
when all the fools
are not in my face
when they go back
to their evil place
and now i’m walking away
from the satan brigade
from the monday morning light
into the sunday night
living before my
perfect time
from the monday morning light
into the sunday night
living near to my
perfect time
where all the news
is not in my way
the talking heads
start to make sense
and i’m walking away
from the satan brigade
from the monday morning light
into the sunday night
living before my
perfect time
from the monday morning light
into the sunday night
living near to my
perfect time
been in your sun
been in your sun
for a long time
flailing around
in the bright light
and when I'm soaked by the rain
it keeps my head so dry
if I ride on my own
I get lost in the dark
and as slow as I go
I need a light outside
been in your sun
always safe and sound
And long past twelve o'clock
I see for miles around
when I fall through the door
there's a light on the floor
and as low as I go
there's a light inside
walking out the miles
don't worry about me no
don't worry about me no-no
i'll just try to get along
don't find the right kind of fun
i won't settle down here for too long
i'm just walking out the miles
i put some rags on
when it gets too cold at night
for my bones
i put some light flow
on the hi-fi stereo
when i'm alone
well, don't worry about me no
don't worry about me no-no
i'll just try to move along
just roll around here a little more
and throw my bags down on the floor
when i find the right line
there's a nightlight
that i can still turn on
when i hear a sound
i've got some shade to find
when the sunlight gets too
bright for my eyes
up from the lazy down
blinded by the light here in the room
that’s lit up from the television news
and all the others walk around
outside these walls all night
while i’m frozen by the headlights of the…
scan lines
painting up the view
of strange eyes
staring back at you
all the time
no matter where i move
they follow me
all around the room
while the war is happening outside
i’m safe behind my television light
and when they talk about the truth
well the truth is always bigger than the news
in the old times where
the faces that you knew
in all the scan lines
flickering in the room
of some strange eyes
that are staring back at you
all the time
no matter where i move
well they follow me
all around the room
i can pull my head back
i can turn this off and
get up from the lazy down and move
find a door outside
walk out running
after i have dusted off my shoes
put some water in the glue
inside these walls
i lose the noises
right outside the room
outside these walls the moon
it’s brighter than the news
i get up from the
lazy down and
see the other faces on the ground
leave the quicksand
pulley up and
climb onto the next plane out of town
i put some water in the glue
outside these walls
i choose the borders where i’m walking through
outside this town the tune
is brighter than the news
