The Secret Sisters - Heavy Balloon Lyrics

People like us we play with a heavy balloon
We keep it up to keep the devil at bay
But it always falls way too soon
People like us we play with a heavy balloon
We keep it up to keep the devil at bay
But it always falls way too soon
People like us we play with a heavy balloon
We keep it up to keep the devil at bay
But it always falls way too soon

I spread like strawberries
I climb like peas and beans
I've been sucking it in so long
That I'm bursting at the seams

I spread like strawberries
I climb like peas and beans
I've been sucking it in so long
That I'm bursting at the seams

In the middle of the day
It's like the sun on the Saharan, when it's slowing me down
Forcing all forms of life inside of me to retreat underground
It grows relentless like the teeth of a rat
It's just to keep on gnawing at me
It constricts like a ball on a hose
Nothing flows, so the pressure grows instead of the sea

People like us get so heavy and so lost sometimes
So lost and so heavy that the bottom is the only place that we can find
We get dragged down, down to the same spot enough times in a row

The bottom begins to feel like the only safe place that you know
But you know what

I spread like strawberries (I spread like strawberry)
I climb like peas and beans
I've been sucking it in so long
That I'm bursting at the seams

I spread like strawberries (I spread like strawberries)
I climb like peas and beans
I've been sucking it in so long
That I'm bursting at the seams

I spread like strawberries (I spread like strawberry)
I climb like peas and beans
I spread like strawberries (I spread like strawberry)
I climb like peas and beans
And I'm bursting at the seams

I spread like strawberries (I spread like strawberry)
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh

I spread like strawberries (I spread like strawberry)

(Spread like strawberry)
I spread like strawberries (I spread like strawberry)
I spread like strawberries (I spread like strawberries)
