I stood on the ledge for what felt like forever
You stood next to me
You said we were in this together
As you held my hand
For it was only a matter of time
Before the wind would blow us over
What good did joining me do for either of us
Because eventually we were both knocked down
And when you are falling from from thirty stories up
It is pointless to cushion the fall
So why did you join me...
When you could have just pulled me away from the ledge?
