Human Cannonball

He was trouble, a human cannonball
She was ready to catch him should he fall
She asked him, «why do you do the things you do?»
He said, «I don’t know what I’m going through»
I rise and fall, a human cannonball
I wreck it all, a human cannonball
I rise and fall, a human cannonball
I wreck it all, a human cannonball, that’s all
At night, he’d light up and shoot across the sky
And she would watch him, a cannonball in flight
And morning would come, he’d come crashing down
He asked her, «Why do you keep staying around?»
I rise and fall, a human cannonball
I wreck it all, a human cannonball
I rise and fall, a human cannonball
I wreck it all, a human cannonball, that’s all
That’s all
That’s all
He said, «Up here, you can see it all»
«It's beautiful, the view of a human cannonball»
She said, «Let's do it» and held on tightly to his hand
They blasted off into the stars and were never seen again
I rise and fall, a human cannonball
I wreck it all, a human cannonball
I rise and fall, a human cannonball
I wreck it all, a human cannonball
I rise and fall, a human cannonball
I rise and fall, a human cannonball
I rise and fall, a human cannonball
I rise and fall, a human cannonball, that’s all
That’s all
That’s all
