the
machine is running
can't
miss your message,
counting
on your call
i'd
jump but
i
can afford to waste
one
more day
i'd
jump but
life
is no bluer
than
the sea &
death
would be bluer
than
that for me
ol'
death came close
i
seen her,
black
hole
heart
& soul,
crawling
back to life,
i
said
i'd
jump but
like
the sea
i've
had a enough
gravity
for one night
i'd
jump but for
these boots would
headline before me, cos
that’s all I have on, and
i never much
liked these boots
i'd jump but
there's a life to be had
i would..
i'd be glad to jump but
there's all that summer fruit coming
round with the
season to be merry
i'd jump but
i'm bound to
get a bit by
Christmas
