Bubbles do it oh so subtle
Make it look like there's no trouble at all
You'd think that these people would see the pain that they are in
But though a bubbles' clear the prisms' way too bright
The bottles only show all of the smiles at their parties
But never when bubbles pop in their eyes
Those children think the burning is the feeling they've been longing for
But that's the cherry on top of the disguise
(Who-ooo-ooo-ooo, who-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo)
Many people aren't too friendly to their bodies
And they let their faces fade away
Bubbles make it all feel better
But they never last forever, guilt finds a way back
(Who-ooo-ooo-ooo, who-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo)
I've never had any bubbles of my own
But I've been around them so very long
And I think I've got some pretty valid things to say
Some people blow oh so many to make the room a little less heavy
But they never made the whole room fly away
You see they thought that the bubbles would act as a cage
And trap and send all the hurt away
To someplace far where they could get some peace of mind
But they always find their way back
And they trap entire lives instead
And that's the shit that truly gets taken away
Bubbles and bottles sound like dreams come true my dear
But remember things aren't always how they appear to be
But don't give
Don't hoist your flag
I promise you that you have other options
Help is all around you and it will never give up on you
So put those filthy fucks that float away
I won't lie to you and tell you that all the pain will go away
But things will pass and some things are worth it
So go ahead and start looking for what you've been healing for
You've earned it
