 A cannon was fired by the light of the moon and 
Waiting the boat should be here very soon and 
I mind less and less all the silly pictures that hang 'round my room, for now 
I write you a letter, I hope you feel better 
I hope you forgive the transgressions 
I've given you love and I've given you anger as well 
And I mean them both 
I always knew it was coming this way 
It was coming this way 
I always knew a big boat would come, 
Take me away, take me away 
I stood in my bed 
Then I slipped in my dress 
Then I ran through the halls like a ghost 
And in case someone heard me 
I grabbed up a dagger that I'd never used, unless 
Bare feet on the cobblestone street, 
Then a beach 
Then a splash 
Then my ankles, my knees, 
Then my thighs and my eyes open wide 
I threw myself right into the sea 
Then I could see it was coming my way 
It was coming my way 
I always knew a big boat would come and take me away 
Take me away, take me away 
I've woken up once 
And I've woken up twice 
And I've woken up millions and millions of times 
Somebody's got to tell all the people to be like the water 
Somebody's got to tell all the people to be like the water 
I would if I could 
But I can't, so I don't 
My heart breaks too easy, my words get all jumbled 
And when I wear lipstick, 
No one understands me at all 
They think I'm saying hello and goodbye and hello and goodbye 
But what I'm really saying is 
They think I'm saying hello and goodbye and hello and goodbye and hello 
But what I'm really saying is 
I've woken up once 
And I've woken up twice 
And I've woken up millions and millions of times
