"Cannonball" — official lyric video by The Dares.
A song about being safe inside your own breakdown.
Taking the leap before you're ready. Learning to fall.
Lyrics:
I keep my head wrapped in a tube
Eyes set on television
I air my worries to the roof
Hoping the height will drift them
Head on tight or hanging loose
I know the sun is coming soon
In a hurry to the room I can’t get out
But I’m safe now
In the corners of this hell
And the chaos is myself
I’m waking up
But this is not allowed
They say this is not allowed
And It all fits closer now
Hang on to yourself
I keep my head stuck in a loop
Thoughts glide with indecision
Outside a virus creeping through
A breath shy of a new condition
I’m staying high
I’m staying loose
I know the sun is coming soon
In a hurry to the room I can’t get out
Yelling “cannon ball”
I’m taking the leap
And learning to fall
And through it all
I’m starting to see that I can evolve
So fuck it all
Sinking in the deep
And shallow below
So ...
