the buddy system - helium heart lyrics

[verse 1]
someone broke the sixth string on my guitar
and my friend said i would never be a star
but i don’t even want to be that anyway
’til the hole in my head disappears
things tend to be easier when i’m wearing rain boots
i step right through puddles of refuse and hard truths
when they get too deep i ride on the shoulders
of people who think that i’m weird

[chorus]
maybe one day i’ll get it together
but for now, i’ll keep falling apart
it’s better than having the world on my shoulders
instead, i’ve got a helium heart

[verse 2]
my mattress is too small to have someone sleep over
my windows stay open ’til the end of october
when leaves start to fall on top of my pillows
the scarecrows, they praise my decor
i’ve always been good at talking to strangers
ignoring the red flags and potential dangers
when they steal my wallet, i invite them to dinner
hoping they drop my cash on the floor
[chorus]
maybe one day i’ll get it together
but for now, i’ll keep falling apart
when i am the ant that is under the boulder
i rely on my helium heart
i get by with my helium heart
i’ve got a helium heart

[verse 3]
my shirt doesn’t fit right because i am not [?]
i am friends with [?] when i get home
at a fancy dinner, pretend i am classy
order the soup of the day
i start to feel dizzy when i stand on bridges
distracting myself by talking to pigeons
and people take pictures i hide in their feathers
turn into a hidden sweater

[chorus]
maybe one day, i’ll get it together
but for now, i’ll keep falling apart
some people get jaded when they get older
but i’ll have my helium heart
i’ll keep my helium heart

[spoken outro]
whoo! that was— that was probably pretty good
