Helium by Glass Animals Lyrics

[Verse 1]
9:09
You gonna call it or am I?
One more time
This puppy love is out of line
One more slide
And then we're back to real life

[Pre-Chorus]
Ooh, and I'm falling now but it's so wrong
You talk like a man and taste like the sun
Ooh, and you lift your eyes up from the dust
I knew just then, I knew it was done

[Chorus]
I guess I want you more than I thought I did
Now that I know that part of you's at home with him
I guess I want you more than I thought I did
Now that I know that part of you's not part of this

[Verse 2]
Soft blue skies
Helium balloons float up away
Broad daylight
But we're sunflowers in the rain
[Verse 3]
My mama said they used to be white pyramids
They float above the sand, they're slowly sinking in
Are our foundations destined to keep crumbling
Just 'cause we started this with zero innocence?
I just can't build on something that begins like this
It's a blood diamond, flawless but for that one thing

[Bridge]
You just want backstreets, you don't want me
You just gonna hate it all the way
You just want backstreets, you don't want me
You just gonna hate it all the way

[Outro]
Hello, who is this? Hello?
Are you watching TV?
Say, "Bye-bye"
Bye-bye
