Fade in, start the scene.
Enter beautiful girl.
But things are not what they seem,
As we stand at the edge of the world...
"Excuse me sir, but I had plans to die tonight.
Oh, and you are directly in my way.
And I bet you’re gonna say it’s not right."
My reply,
"Excuse me miss,
But do you have the slightest clue,
Of exactly what you just said to me,
And exactly who you’re talking to?"
She said, "I don’t care you don’t even know me."
I said, "I know but I’d like to change that soon hopefully."
Yeah, we all flirt with the tiniest notion,
Of self conclusion in one simplified motion.
You see the trick is that you are never supposed to act on it.
No matter how unbearable this misery gets.
"You make it sound so easy to be alive.
But tell me how am I supposed to seize this day,
When everything inside of me has died?"
My reply,
"Trust me girl.
I know your legs are pleading to leap,
But I offer you this easy choice.
Instead of dying living with me."
She said, "Are you crazy? You don’t even know me."
I said, "I know but I’d like to change that soon hopefully."
Yeah, we all flirt with the tiniest notion,
Of self conclusion in one simplified motion.
You see the trick is that you are never supposed to act on it.
No matter how unbearable this misery gets.
"I would be lying if I said that things would never get rough,
And all this cliché motivation it could never be enough.
I could stand here all night trying to convince you,
But what good would that do?
My offer stands and you must choose."
"Alright you win but I only give you one night,
To prove yourself to be better than my attempt at flight.
I swear to God if you hurt me I will leap.
I will toss myself from these very cliffs,
And you'll never see it coming."
"Settle precious, I know what you're going through.
Just ten minutes before you got here I was gonna jump too."
Yeah, we all flirt with the tiniest notion,
Of self conclusion in one simplified motion.
See the trick is that you are never supposed to act on it.
No matter how unbearable this misery gets.
