White Balloons

[Missy]

I'm holding onto white balloons
up against a sky of doom
tell me you see them
'cause what's inside of me is invisible to most
even in clear view
I'm sending out a signal to the possibility of you
'cause right at this moment
I know you're connected to a part of me that I don't even know myself

(chorus)
The changes in me
are likely to be like the weather
stormy and clear strength into fear bound together

But I'll break my silence
if I believed that you and me could ever be
more than just what's been behind us
I tried and left, they came and went
I got rejected out again
but no one believes me
I've worn a hundred faces
of the character replacements and now
nobody sees me

(chorus 2)
The changes in me
are likely to be like the weather
cloudy at best...

(bridge)
Angels lift me
are you with me?
I'm holding onto you like I'm holding onto white balloons
Carry me away
I hope that you don't break
don't break

[pshaah]

This song is perfect. It's got the right balance of a sweet melody and an amazing rock sound. And Emma has a lovely voice!! She should sing lead more often

[Cassie]

I can't get over the awesomeness of this song. It's very hard for me to sit through it cuz I keep restarting it and it takes all my willpower to let the rest of the song play. Favorite song on the album. Easy.

[rockedbritt]

i love the part where it says "tell me you see them." i dont know how to explain it, it just gives me this weird sad feeling.

This song is just awfully excellent. Every time I hear it, it is such a pleasure... And especially when Shim sings "Are you with me ?" For sure, I am.

P.S. : I love reading you when you write "ballads", it's so fun to see some French in your sentences... It makes them... Well, spicy.

[Cassie]

[Théodore]

Oh, no, don't worry, it's not spicy at all, it's just using some French in your English sentences that's spicy X)

"Une ballade" = a walk ("se ballader" -> to have a walk) ; and indeed, when a song is quite slow, we call it "une ballade". ^^

My fave line is..
The changes in me..Are likely to be like the weather. Thats so me at the moment and I really am connectiong with the song because of it.
