lyrics

Oh, I googled 'nearby bridges' today,
in unbearable pain,
to find the place I'd leave this life.

So I walked for miles in the dwindling sun,
and I scrambled on up
to where the railings meet the sky.

I thought of those young men
who made the same plan,
here where I stand.

They all stared into that swallowing space,
metaphysically brave,
to trade their pain for fates unknown.

You may say there's gentler ways to be brave,
but it's hard when you're raised
to bear your burdens all alone.

But we're not alone here,
we boys on the bridge,
sharing this wish.

And on the nightfall breeze,
swear I heard them speak,
just for a moment:
'We're beside you.'

Weighing my life in my hands,
watching the tall trees dance,
just for a moment,
I believed them.

Oh, I guess I'll stay a little while more.
