"Cannonball" lyrics

"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
Cause we've been torn

The mission has failed
I'm still on your tail
So light the fuses 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 13th floor

The mission has failed
I'm still on your tail
So light the fuses 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
