lyrics

What did you hope to find through
Another man like me?
To live outside yourself for just a
Little time?
To unload the weight of yourself, whatever
It may be?
And when your alone, what
Will you be?

Lighter than air,
No substance at all,
Lighter than air,
No substance at all,
A bouncy ball.

Bouncing off another man like he
Controls your fate,
As if another really knows what you are
Supposed to do,
And while I try to do what I am here to do, I
Find myself fighting off criminals on
My estate.
Dependent or dependable, either or, in the
Former state, you'll remain

Lighter than air,
No substance at all,
Lighter than air
No substance at all,

Lighter than air,
No substance at all,
Lighter than air,
No substance at all,
A bouncy ball.

I know I've been hard on you,
Hard on you, hard on you,
But it's good for you,
Good for you, good for you, good for you,
And if you really need,
Really need, really need, really need,
I will lie with you,
Stand with you, walk with you, run with you,
Run with you, run with you, run with you,
Run.
