Cannonball
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Idle eyes
Panicked souls
Escaping life
Growing cold
Seeking out
A place to go
Waiting in
An open hole
This can’t be what I wanted
This can’t be what I needed
This can’t be how my life should go
This can’t be what you wanted
This can’t be what you needed
This can’t be how our lives should go
Set the sky on fire
This cannonball is coming down
Rolling
I can’t wait until this whole fucking thing just blows up now
Blow the whole fucking thing
Broken glass
Empty homes
New fires burn
Afterglows
Painted signs
Where to go
Infect minds
Please the throne
This can’t be what I wanted
This can’t be what I needed
This can’t be how my life should go
This can’t be what you wanted
This can’t be what you needed
This can’t be how our lives should go
Set the sky on fire
This cannonball is coming down
Rolling
I can’t wait until this whole fucking thing just blows up now
Blow the whole fucking thing
You say death will begin my life
Your so-called life
Will be my death
Set the sky on fire
This cannonball is coming down
Rolling
I can’t wait until this whole fucking thing just blows up now
Blow the whole fucking thing
You say death will begin my life
This so-called life
Blow the whole fucking thing
You say death will begin my life
This so-called life
Blow the whole fucking thing
