This is an original composition called "Helium." It is about letting go of things not meant for you. This song was inspired by a couple of incredible women that I work with. 

Let's call this what it is 
There's no point in pretending
Step back and hold your breath
We'll start from the beginning
Don't think you understand 
That this is not your fault 
Stay calm, hold on 
You're dreaming

I'm stuck in quicksand 
Sinking deeper, falling faster
Struggling so hard to stand
But swallowed by disaster
I'm on the ledge deciding 
if it's time to sail 
Inhale, inhale

Helium 
Wish I could fly
but scared to try, it's just too hard
Let me come with you tonight 
Think I know why we're torn apart
It's freedom 
the hardest part is landing right side up 
When you fall 
but after all 
You are still breathing

How did it come to this?
I had it mapped out perfectly
You always want control 
but this time it's not you, it's me
Too late to make amends 
but I want you to know 
All along, I've held on
but now you're free

Ephemeral, yet magical
to show vulnerability 
Stripped of all that's beautiful 
No hiding, why can't you see?
I'm right in front of you
and so afraid to fail 
Inhale, inhale

Helium 
Wish I could fly
but scared to try, it's just too hard
Let me come with you tonight 
Think I know why we're torn apart
It's freedom 
the hardest part is landing right side up 
When you fall 
but after all 
You are still breathing
