Album: The Black Swan (2008)

Cannonball

GO!

Yeah
This clock is counting down
To a final resignation
Another crowning curtain call
A global melt down
Leaves a trail of devastation
It carves the writing on the wall - oh you know

We've never seen this kind of world
It's a warning to us all
We've never seen this kind of world
And I hope that we can stop this cannonball
Stop this cannonball

We play the lead role
With a lack of education
And pay a price we'll never know
Our future's been sold
By a profit margin generation
We're all invited to the show - oh you know

We've never seen this kind of world
It's a warning to us all
We've never seen this kind of world
It's a warning to us all
We've never seen this kind of world
And I hope that we can stop this cannonball
Stop this cannonball

Cuz when it all comes crashing down -
Down from above there will be no salvation
Is there anything that can save us - from ourselves

Oh…

We've never seen this kind of world
It's a warning to us all
No, we've never seen this kind of world
It's a warning to us all
Oh, we've never seen this - we've never seen this - kind of world
Oh, we've never seen this - we've never seen this
And I hope that we can stop this cannonball
Stop this cannonball

Oh!
