Black Balloon

Elevator straight into my skull
The escalator rises as it falls

I swear our jet is crashing in my mind
You can hold on but I wouldn't waste your time

Farewell my black balloon

I've stood in a thousand street scenes
Just around the corner from you
On the edge of a dream that you have
Has anybody ever told you it's not coming true

Farewell my black balloon
The weather had its way with you

Farewell my black balloon
The weather had its way with you

The Kills

The Good Ones

  

Took a car to the part of the city

Where the city runs out of street lights

God knows, it's the way that it goes

That we're never gonna catch any daylight

My little sister's eyes so wide

They must have been the size of the city moon tonight

My little sister's eyes so wide

Must have been the size of the city

Did you got me the good ones

The real good ones, what you got

Take a water full, the water tastes good

I took the water and the water was hot

Once in a while, once in a while

You got to burn your lips, keep your feelings alive

Once in a while, once in a while

You got to burn down your house, keep your dreaming alive

So, did you get the real good ones

Did you get the good ones

The Kills
