Jumping Off This Bridge

By mywristshurt

Here I go,
No body is here to stop me.
Good-bye cruel world,
Im forever lost at your sea.

You won with your evil intentions.
I lost by being manipulated.
I'm going to be stuck in a child-like detention,
If I don't get out of here.

I'm holding unto the pole,
That connects the bridge together.
I look down very slow,
At the icy water I will enter.

A tear falls down my cheek,
As I say so long forever.
If only this life weren't so bleak
I would be staying longer.

Here I go,
Jumping off this bridge.
I look down very slow,
At the life I used to live.

The water has me surrounded
I lost by being manipulated.
If I never jumped off this bridge,
I would be staying longer.
