baby's black balloon makes her fly
i almost fell into that hole in your life
and you're not thinking 'bout tomorrow
'cause you were the same as me, but on your knees

a thousand other boys could never reach you
how could i have been the one?
i saw the world spin beneath you
and scatter, like ice, from the spoon that was your womb

comin' down, the world turned over
and angels fall without you there
and i go on, as you get colder
or are you someone's prayer

you know the lies they always told you
and the love you never knew
what's the things they never showed you
that swallow the light from the sun inside your room, yeah

comin' down, the world turned over
and angels fall without you there
and i go on, as you get colder
always someone

and there's no time left for losin'
when you stand, they fall, yeah

comin' down, the world turned over
and angels fall without you there
and i go on, as you get colder
all because i'm

comin' down, the years turn over
and angels fall without you there
and i'll go on, to lead you home and
all because i'm

all because i'm
i'll become
what you became to me
