Don't know where I'm goin,
been tryin to find my way.
Can't help thinkin the last 24 years
have all just been a waste.
I feel so alone, at times
nobody cares.
I try to get close to people,
but they all get so scared.
Feelings so intense,
emotions run so deep
I can't handle the pain at times.
I really wanna leap.
The bridge is so high,
the wind whips thru my hair,
The water below catches my eye,
I get caught in an empty stare.
Mesmerized by the current
swirling round and round.
I hold tightly to the iron bars
as I gaze all the way down.
But my life is so meaningless,
and I never really belonged.
If I were to jump it's not like
they'd even notice I was gone.
God tries to talk to me,
talk me out of jumpin,
But I learned to block him out long ago,
the day I lost my lovin.
The tears drip down,
salty to the taste,
The wind is so cold,
it's burnin my face.
Cars drive by,
but I'm invisibly lost,
No one notices me, or even
attempts to stop.
I've been here so long,
I've just stood here and thought.
I can't think anymore,
my minds made up.
It's a long way down,
but here I go.
I just want to say
how I loved you all.
I'ts not your fault you couldn't
give me what I need.
It's time I admit
I was never meant to be.
