The hollow metal arrow Fell to the water It must have come down from the past I gave it to you And I watched as my sandcastle Was slowly turned into gold The little black beacon The shine was so strong That it took me awhile to adjust It took up my house It split me apart So I found a place on the grass Fire away, I'm still here in phantom wings Fire away, I still have my better days Fire away, what more can I do but say Fire away, fire away A shallow river by the road Soothe the tensions and turn them to skipping stone And me by the shore I noticed that day made me older than I was before You say I'm too sad, well I happen to like it I happen to like you too Fire away, I'm still here in phantom wings Fire away, I still have my better days Fire away, what more can I do but say Fire away, fire away Fire away, i know all your tricks and foul play It won't work on me anymore Fire away, what more can I do but say Fire away, fire away
