Throw a penny down the wishing well

Cause it hasn't worked before

All the money in the world can't bring us back

As we've been torn

The mission has failed

I'm still on your tail

So light the fuse is up

Said that you want me

Said that you need me

Now I'm just hanging by a thread

You're keeping me guessing

My head feels so messy

Don't want to be left alone for dead

My heart don't feel a part of me

I've been empty for far too long

I've been falling, falling, falling

Like a cannonball

Cross my heart and hope to die for you

Cause I haven't died before

I make it harder than it needs to be

Staying on the 30th floor

The mission has failed

I'm still on your tail

So light the fuse is up

Said that you want me

Said that you need me

Now I'm just hanging by a thread

You're keeping me guessing

My head feels so messy

Don't want to be left alone for dead

My heart don't feel a part of me

I've been empty for far too long

I've been falling, falling, falling

Like a cannonball

You wake me up

You hold me down

You turn your cheek

You laugh out loud

You are the one

That drives me crazy

Said that you want me

Said that you need me

Now I'm just hanging by a thread

You're keeping me guessing

My head feels so messy

Don't want to be left alone for dead

My heart don't feel a part of me

I've been empty for far too long

I've been falling, falling, falling

Like a cannonball
