Let's all rely on the common ground we hold

Before we all kill ourselves

Common fears, common loves, common hates

Common loss, common gains, common dates

I was just a balloon blew up too fast

I was just a balloon blew up too fast

Everyone was a one that I thought was the one I thought was

Yeah

Everyone was a one that I thought was the one I thought I was

Yeah

Pull the strings on the ballons floating in the air

One thousand red balloons popped this year from

Heat in the head blowing up the dead fear lodged in your brain oh mass terror

Let's all rely on the common ground we hold

Before we all kill ourselves

Common fears, common loves, common hates

Common loss, common gains, common dates

I was just a balloon blew up too fast

I was just a balloon blew up too fast

Everyone was a one that I thought was the one I thought was

Yeah

Everyone was a one that I thought was the one I thought I was

Yeah

Burning through the atmosphere as we tear each other down

Yeah

Burning through the atmosphere as we tear each other down

Yeah

And everyone identical, every one of them the same brain over

Life is a figure of death that you require in the aquisition of it

Hate is a figure of love that you require in the aquisition...

Pain belongs to those who want it and those who love it (ah ah)

Fear belongs to those who need it and those who hate it (ah ah)

Let's all rely on the common ground we hold

Before we all kill ourselves

Common fears, common loves, common hates

Common loss, common gains, common dates

Everyone was a one that I thought was the one I thought I was

Yeah

Everyone was a one that I thought was the one I thought I was

Yeah

Burning through the atmosphere as we tear each other down

Yeah

Burning through the atmosphere as we tear each other down

Yeah

As we pick out minute differences referencing the third and fourth laws of geometry

We recollect the fears we had as when we were the humans

Fourty five degrees too small to be a right angle to the ground

(fourty five degrees too small to be a right angle to the ground)

Let's all rely on the common ground we hold

Before we all kill ourselves

Common fears, common loves, common hates

Common loss, common gains, common dates

Everyone was a one that I thought was the one I thought I was

Yeah

Everyone was a one that I thought was the one I thought I was

Yeah

Burning through the atmosphere as we tear each other down

Yeah

Burning through the atmosphere as we tear each other down

Yeah

Sink into your plastic expanding in the heat I tell you my fears

All of them involving sharp objects near my neck as I reach to explode

And as we pick out minute differences referencing the third and fourth laws of geometry

e recollect the fears we had as when we were the humans I call faith

We stand fourty five degrees too short to be a right angle to the ground

(we stand fourty five degrees too short to be a right angle to the ground)

Let's all rely on the common ground we hold

Before we all kill ourselves

Common fears, common loves, common hates

Common loss, common gains, common dates

Everyone was a one that I thought was the one I thought I was

Yeah

Everyone was a one that I thought was the one I thought I was

Yeah

Burning through the atmosphere as we tear each other down

Everyone was a one that I thought was the one I thought I was

(we stand fourty five degrees too short to be a right angle to the ground)

Burning through the atmosphere as we tear each other down

(we stand fourty five degrees too short to be a right angle to the ground)

Burning through the atmosphere as we tear each other down

(we stand fourty five degrees too short to be a right angle to the ground)

The drum beat is essentially a rip off of "Rock is Dead" by Marilyn Manson

And the lyrics are written in a very Manson-esque tone...normally I prefer to rip off Trent Reznor or Maynard when I write.
