Gray Balloons

The canvas was blank Then colored in doubt Come little white lies And wash it out You gave me a bruise That faded to gold Grips getting loose Too much to hold So goodbye gray balloons I know I'll see you real soon Diverging lines Once got crossed Always intertwined Forever lost You're in my blood But you can't stay I'm tires in mud That churn in place 'Til I let go of you I let go of gray balloons We cleared your room And you left town You gave me your fruit I watched it brown Now it's been bruised Colored in mold Nothing to lose Too much to hold So goodbye gray balloons I know I'll see you real soon
