Sia/David Guetta Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I cry out but nothing comes now
I'm giving my all and I know peace will come
I never wanted to need someone
Yeah, I wanted to play tough
Thought I could do all this on my own
But even Superwoman
Help me out of this hell
Your love lifts me up like helium
Your love lifts me up when I'm down down down
When I've hit the ground
You're all I need
'Cause your love lifts me up like helium
And if you let go I'll float towards the sun
I'm stronger 'cause you fill me up
But when the fear comes and I drift towards the ground
I am lucky that you're around
Yeah, I wanted to play tough
Thought I could do all this on my own
But even Superwoman
Sometimes needed Superman's soul
Help me out of this hell
Your love lifts me up like helium
Your love lifts me up when I'm down down down
When I've hit the ground
You're all I need
'Cause your love lifts me up like helium
Lifts me up like helium
You lift me up and I am found
You lift me up before I hit the ground
You lift me up when I am down down down
You lift me up before I hit the ground
You lift me up when I'm down down down
You lift me up before I hit the ground
Your love lifts me up like helium
Your love lifts me up when I'm down down down
When I've hit the ground
You're all I need
'Cause your love lifts me up like helium
Your love lifts me up like helium
The lyrics to "Helium" by Sia and David Guetta present the theme of vulnerability and the need for support and love in difficult times. The persona admits that although she wants to be strong and independent, there are moments when she falls and cries out for help, yet nothing comes. She, however, gives her all and hopes that peace will eventually come. The chorus reaffirms the importance of having someone to love and support, as the persona compares the feeling of being lifted up by helium to the feeling of being lifted up by love. The persona, however, recognizes the possibility of falling again but expresses gratitude for having someone to hold on to, like Superman's soul or love in this case, to help her out of the "hell" of her struggles.
Overall, the song sends a message of hope and reliance on the people we love to help us overcome difficult times. It shows that even when we want to be independent and strong, it is okay to need others' support and that it is this support that helps us change and become stronger.

One foot in front of the other, babe
One breath leads to another, yeah
Just keep moving
Look within for the strength today
Listen now for the voice to say
Just keep moving
Go, go, go, figure it out
Figure it out, but don't stop moving
Go, go, go, figure it out
Figure it out, you can do this
So my love, keep on running
You gotta get through today
There my love, keep on running
Gotta keep those tears at bay
Oh my love, don't stop burning
Gotta send them up in flames
In flames
Don't stop, tomorrow's another day
Don't stop, tomorrow you'll feel no pain
Just keep moving
Don't stop, the past will trip you up
You know, right now's never be enough
Just keep moving
Go, go, go, figure it out
Figure it out, but don't stop moving
Go, go, go, figure it out
Figure it out, you can do this
So my love, keep on running
You gotta get through today
There my love, keep on running
Gotta keep those tears at bay
Oh my love, don't stop burning
Gotta send them up in flames
In flames
In flames
In flames
Go, go, go, figure it out
Figure it out, but don't stop moving
Go, go, go, figure it out
Figure it out, you can do this
So my love, keep on running
You gotta get through today
There my love, keep on running
Gotta keep those tears at bay
Oh my love, don't stop burning
Gotta send them up in flames
In flames.
