"The Birds Attacked My Hot Air Balloon" lyrics

"The Birds Attacked My Hot Air Balloon"

The birds attacked my hot air balloon
Their shrieks heard over the torch
These skies belong to them
So I begin my descent

The wind keeps my eyes from being opened
So in roaring dark
I plummet quietly
And try to think of nothing

A breath has been hanging and securely from a hook
A wild swipe at control to see which takes me first

I could see your house from here if I bothered to look
Oh, without light all I can do is think of those birds
