lyrics

My feet itch from standing on this ledge too long. These shoes are getting too small and too old. As soon as they are done with this bridge, I'm running. Don't look back, I'll break my neck.

Just as they wave the flag, I forget to look down, and I fall into this county line made of rum. On the way down, all I can do is look up and wonder where I went wrong.

The wind whistled in my ears and I lost the splash amongst the thorn bush in my head. The river was as clear as night and all my friends were having a pool party without me. The laughs made the medicine warm and the jokes made everyone forget. They had a picnic set up in the next town like I've never seen before.

I took off my shoes and went underneath the river and every time I came back up, I felt a little better. The river felt so smooth and it ran so deep that I never had to worry about a nightmare ever again. But the more I smile and the more I love is when they all go home because the street lights turned on. I'm too drunk to cry about it. They'll come back eventually if I wait in the dark long enough.
