i watched the balloon fly higher

it made me feel less than grounded



quick step two, one for me, one for you

our steps in the sand never had a chance



i can taste the time passing between my lips

almost as cool as the air through my hands



i'm not faster than i can breath

and only if you ask me quiet



is this the place where i have to leave
the time when i have to make it complete



and quiet things never had me

and only if you hadn't -
