Fire Away

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 one's 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 one's 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)
