Jumper - Third Eye Blind

Jumper - Third Eye Blind

I wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend
You could cut ties with all the lies
That you've been living in
And if you do not want to see me again
I would understand
I would understand
The angry boy, a bit too insane
Icing over a secret pain
You know you don't belong
You're the first to fight
You're way too loud
You're the flash of light
On a burial shroud
I know something's wrong
Well everyone I know has got a reason
To say
Put the past away
I wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend
You could cut ties with all the lies
That you've been living in
And if you do not want to see me again
I would understand
I would understand
Well, he's on the table
And he's gone to code
And I do not think anyone knows
What they are doing here
And your friends have left
You've been dismissed
I never thought it would come to this
And I
I want you to know
Everyone's got to face down the demons
Maybe today
We can put the past away
I wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend
You could cut ties with all the lies
That you've been living in
And if you do not want to see me again
I would understand
I would understand
I would understand
Can you put the past away
I wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend
I would understand...

Play-A-Day (Day 4)

Lights up on a bridge. This bridge is empty but it needs to be known it is from a substantial height. A young girl comes running across this bridge and when she gets to the center she moves out to the edge. She stands there for a moment then quickly looks behind her and begins to climb over the safety rail. She has finished climbing over when a young man comes running onto the bridge and in a panic screams

Older Man
Stop!

Young Girl
Why should I!?

Older Man
Because there's more to it than what you know!

Young Girl
What more do I need to know!?

Older Man
A lot.

Young Girl
Yeah well fuck you. Fuck you and your lies.

Older Man
Would you just listen to me for once!?

Young Girl
You act like I have no reason to be here!

Older Man
That's because you don't. If you'd just listen to me I could explain what happened.

Young Girl
I know exactly what happened! You raped her you bastard! You fucking raped her!

Older Man
So is that what she told you? Did she also tell you how there wasn't a night that went by when she wasn't drunk! How could she know if she'd been raped or not?

Young Girl
Maybe when I came!

The young girl lets go and falls to her death. The older man runs towards the spot but isn't able to stop her. Lights fade
