Cannonball
Cannonball Heartbreak: Waves of Cold Indifference and Poisoned Roses
Lyrics
I stumbled back home
I returned home clumsily
And leave the door open
I left the door open
Six in the morning, I fall into bed
At six in the morning, I collapse into bed
Your disappointment it stings like an ointment
Your disappointment affects me like a stinging ointment
Just for a moment and then I'll forget
It hurts for a brief moment, then I'll try to forget
Oh, this cold indifference
There's a cold indifference
Boredom and bitterness
Feelings of boredom and bitterness
I can't keep doing this, night after night
I can't continue this routine, night after night
I don't want this anymore
I no longer desire this
And my heart's a cannonball
My heart is heavy and burdensome like a cannonball
Dragging me under these waves
It's pulling me beneath the waves of difficulty
People don't change
The belief that people don't change
You smell expensive but I know it's rented
You have an alluring scent, but I know it's not genuine
Boys can be poison and still be rose-scented
Men can be harmful, yet still, appear attractive
So, I wash you off me
I'm cleansing myself of you
Cocaine and coffee
Reference to drug use (cocaine) and a common beverage (coffee)
These days you stimulate nothing inside me
Currently, you don't evoke any emotions in me
But cold indifference
There's a continued sense of cold indifference
Boredom and bitterness
Feelings of boredom and bitterness persist
I can't keep doing this, night after night
I can't endure this repetitive cycle, night after night
I don't want this anymore
I no longer wish for this
And my heart's a cannonball
My heart is still a heavy burden like a cannonball
Dragging me under these waves
It's pulling me under challenging circumstances
People don't change
Reiteration of the belief that people don't change
People don't change (no)
People don't change (repeated)
No, I don't want this anymore
Expressing the refusal to continue in this manner
And my heart's a cannonball
My heart remains burdensome like a cannonball
Dragging me under these waves
It's still pulling me under challenging circumstances
People don't
Reiteration of the belief that people don't change
