Just Jump

lyrics

And you said now this is the time
But I never volunteered to be first in line
All that it would show and you knew it that it would prove you right

And you said so what do you think
And I said to you I don't care about anything
All I wanted to do was to get you off my back that night

And so you pushed and you pushed some more but I never thought I could jump before
With one arms twisted at the water I was looking down

Just jump it's easier said
All you gotta do is quiet the voice inside your head
The ground will throw you off just far enough so you miss the sand

No building, bridge no matter the size
Could erase that suicidal look you had in your eye
All the pressure that you gave and all I wanted you to do was lend a hand

Just jump, just jump, like you jumped before
100 feet to the ocean floor
And I can feel the law of gravity pulling me down

To the water let's go
I couldn't think of a thing to say
Well I thought about revenge and advice you gave me yesterday

And you said this is only for fun
and I said to you I don't care about anyone
I'd have rather thrown you off that ledge then have taken another look

And you said now this is the case
But I grabbed your throat, dug in and spit in your face
I watched your body fall it gave more than the chance I could have took

And in the end, what was it all for
cause I always knew I could settle the score
With panic spreading I was certain things were turning around

To the water let's go
I couldn't think of a thing to say
Well I thought about revenge and advice you gave me yesterday

I couldn't think of a thing to say
Well I thought about your advice but I threw it all away
