Blow the electric candle out Let yourself slip away a while Into the phosphorescent blue That's swimming through the tubes in you 'Cuz you are made of water Slowly synchronising with the moon That rises from the sea in front you Like a blood red balloon Like a blood red balloon Wandering naked though the street Forewarning everyone you meet You hold their fortune in your hand See heaven in a grain of sand Converse with the Spiritual Sun On Primrose Hill, NW1 Emerging ghostly from the morning dew Like a blood red balloon Like a blood red balloon Like a blood red balloon Like a blood red balloon Don't close your eyes You can't fight it Don't close your eyes You can't hide from it Open your eyes You can't fight it Don't close your eyes You can't fight it Don't close your eyes You can't fight it Don't close your eyes You can't hide from it Open your eyes You can't fight it Don't close your eyes I look into your staring eyes And understand our future lies With the destined demise of man A mushroom cloud following an Explosion filmed in surround sound Sending deep tremors through the ground Obscuring the innocent sky from view Like a blood red balloon Like a blood red balloon Like a blood red balloon Like a blood red balloon Like a blood (Don't close your eyes)
