Cannonball

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
