Lyrics

"JUMPER"

VERSE
I'm on the edge. Lookin' over the crowd.
I'm on the ledge. Noone can stop me now.
I need help. This is how it begins.
Everyone's small and powerless...
when you look down on them.

CHORUS
I'm taller than the tower of Donald Trump.
If I don't stop soon... I'm gonna' jump.

VERSE 2
Filled with hate that we call pride.
I wish that someone would stop this ride...
high upon your horse and smile.
Live your life in deep denial.

CHORUS
The world is spinnin' in a major slump.
If you don't stop pushin'...

BRIDGE
I'm gonna' Fall... Fall into the great divide.
I'm gonna' Fall... I refuse to choose who lives and dies.
Seein' so much violence has made me numb.
If I don't stop soon... I'm gonna' jump.

VERSE 3
Politician's vote their hearts desire.
Our boys are killed with "friendly fire"...
off your guns and feed the fear
'til noone is left standing here.

CHORUS
The world is dancin' while the government drums.
If it don't stop soon... I'm gonna' jump.

VERSE 4
I see the sidewalks of my life.
Signs of poverty, robbery, can't you see?
Gravity's pullin' me down under the weight of it all.
You've got to stand before you can fall.
The Gap is growin' like the wealth of Saddam.
If you don't stop pushin'...

BRIDGE
I'm gonna' Fall... Fall into the great divide.
I'm gonna' Fall... I refuse to choose who lives and dies.

CHORUS
The truth is fadin', now my time has come.
If I don't stop soon... I'm gonna' jump..
I'm taller than the tower of Donald Trump.
If I don't stop soon... I'm gonna'...
