When you come back, I'll already be gone   Feeling a little happy and undone   Well that's alright 'cuz I'm already lost   Just close my eyes and try to adjust   To the hospital lights and the spinning of the room      Up in a tree there are 28 balloons      But then you said   It wasn't just a lie, you said   That one day I would fly, you said   That all wasn't lost, you said   I would make it across...      I remember the rain made your eyes greener   And the way the doctor said you were still in danger   But I don't mind 'cuz somewhere along the way   I found out I was more at peace everyday   But the fact that dogs have to get shot   And somehow people manage to get caught      But then you said   It wasn't just a lie, you said   That one day I would fly, you said   That all wasn't lost, you said   I would make it across...
