A Cannon lyrics

A cannon was fired by the light of the moon,
I'm waiting; the boat should be here very soon,
And I mind less and less all the silly pictures that hang round' my room, for now,
I write you a letter,
I hope you feel better,
I hope you forgive the transgressions,
I've given you love,
And I've given you anger as well,
And I meant them both,
I always knew it was coming this way,
Was coming this way,
I always knew a big boat would come and take me away,
Take me away,
I stood on my bed,
Then I slipped in my dress,
Then I ran through the halls,
Like a ghost,
And in case someone heard me,
I grabbed the big dagger that I'd never use, unless
Bare feet on the cobblestones street,
Then a beach,
Then a splash,
Then my ankles,
My knees,
Then my thighs,
And my eyes open-wide,
I threw myself right into the sea,
And I could see it was coming my way,
Was coming my way,
I always knew a big boat would come and take me away,
Take me away,
Take me away,
I've woken up once,
And I’ve woken up twice,
And I’ve woken up millions and millions of times,
Somebody's got to tell all the people to be like the water,
Somebody's got to tell all the people to be like the water,
I would if I could,
But I can't so I don't,
My heart breaks too easy,
My words get all jumbled,
And when I wear lipstick,
Then no-one understands me at all,
They think I'm saying hello and goodbye,
Hello and goodbye,
What I'm really saying is,
(Whispering)
They think I'm saying hello and goodbye,
Hello and goodbye and hello,
What I'm really saying is,
(Whispering)
I've woken up once,
And I’ve woken twice,
And I’ve woken up millions and millions of times.
