Before I Turn
Don’t Look Down
[Intro]
Do you believe in love that has died?
She beckons me, but what do I find?
[Verse 1]
"Jump, my love, I swear that you'll fly
Meet me at the top of the sky
Jump, my darling, don't look down
You're a long way from the ground"
What am I waiting for?
One more step off this ledge and I'm closer to you
What am I thinking for?
Every second on this ledge is a second without you
[Verse 2]
One step closer to sanity
One death closer to empathy
One jump closer, so no one catch me
One decision closer to altruistic demise
I'm gonna jump for the reason above
To be with the one that I love
[Bridge]
"Altitude overwhelms me
As solitude and euphoria fill what's left of my heart
My eyes set out on the horizon
But my ears are set out on obeying the beckoning
Of the beguiling voice ringing inside of my ears
It rings until I cannot feel fear anymore"
("Jump my love")
"Jump my love, it'll all be over with one more step
("Jump my love")
No more pain, no more agony
("Jump my love")
No more living the immense guilt
That you have inflicted upon yourself
("Jump my love")
Jump my love, I swear that you'll die"
[Outro]
"Jump my love, I swear that you'll fly
Meet me at the top of the sky"
Right before I fall from the edge
They pull me back from the ledge
