IT’S MY LIFE SO GET OUTTA MY WAY
Verse 1:
With black hair and fire red tips
Getting undressed at the top of the cliffs
Ready to jump down, joinin’ the fish
But girlfriend stops me and shows me her wrist
Covered in blood bright red against white
Look into her eyes, frozen by fright
She promises she’ll be alright
If I stay with her just one more night
Verse 2:
She promises we’ll run forever
While we’re screaming “Never say never!”
No one’s ever gonna stop us now
Who cares what they’ll allow
It’s not up to them no more
We’re not gonna be ignored
Coz we’re worse off than you
But we’re better than you too
Chorus:
She says we’ll go around the whole wide world
Hair around her finger twirled
Sleep under the starlit sky
Singing songs and wondering why
The world has been so cruel to us
And why they’ve made such a fuss
About the way we dress and sing
Why can’t you just let me do my thing?
Bridge:
The alarm on her phone starts to ring
She looks up at me, frowning
She whispers “times up, back to the cliff.”
And I look down, suddenly feeling stiff
The drop so big, water below so dark
Flashback to those pale white marks
Etched into the inside of my arm
It’s time I give up the major self-harm
Chorus:
She says we’ll go around the whole wide world
Hair around her finger twirled
Sleep under the starlit sky
Singing songs and wondering why
The world has been so cruel to us
And why they’ve made such a fuss
About the way we dress and sing
Why can’t you just let me do my thing?
And we’ll go around the whole wide world
Hair around our fingers twirled
Sleep under the starlit sky
Singing this song and wondering why
It took as so long to figure out
What this life is all about
Still gonna dress this way and sing
So you’d better let me just do my thing
So let me know what you guys think of this, I'm not quite sure about it but I like it at the moment - whether I think the same thing in the morning is a completely different thing though rofl Thanks for checking this out either way - CBL

- She's not encouraging him to jump but I do get why that's confusing. And with the whole wide world, they are alive, figuratively =p glad you liked it though mrgreen

aaaaaw smile I like it. very very much. i dont understand one tiny factor though - is the girlfriend encoraging the ersona to jump, or ...? And about the whole wide world in the chorus... does it mean when they are alive or dead?
