I refuse to claim a guilty pleasure
I will have a joy you cannot measure
If guilt is all it takes to break a man I will throw it all away and make my stand
I will fire through the sky
I will need no reason why. Nothing but a flying cannonball
I will navigate those straights and narrows
Laugh away the daggers stones and arrows
As the seasons change and blow away I will sing until I've got nothing left to say
I will fire through the sky
I will need no reason why. 'Cause I'm nothing but a flying cannonball
It used to be the best things I could invent
Were my own new forms of punishment
It's who I am. It's just who I am
I've been singing at the sunlight like a sparrow
I'm gonna break the bones of my foes and suck the marrow
Sweet the life of those with no regrets. But how can I forgive, how can I forget?
I will fire through the sky
I will need no reason why. Nothing but a flying cannonball
And so I fall
