This one's going out to you As the taxi pulls away A song to keep you company for the ride There's something wrong with a goodbye In the middle of the day So pretend I am still sitting at your side And if you want to talk about all the differences Between the shackle and the man Or if you've got reasons no one ever let you say Then fire away Fire away This ones going out to you On the day they let you out For the thousand ways they ask if you're okay Because whatever answer that you give It's only gonna play into their doubts And be just half of what's behind each word you say So if you finally roped that heartbreak song That the experts never could Or if you just wanted someone to listen to you play Then fire away Fire away Fire away This ones going out to you If you ever start to slip And you learn to read between these lines you've drawn When what is wrong and what is right Seem more like just the ocean and the ship And the straight line that you've followed here is gone And if that same old fox comes and sweeps you up Each time you spread your wings I could at least love you through each stumble, shift and sway So fire away Fire away Fire away When you need someone to walk away from When you need someone to let you in (Through each stumble, shift and sway)
