___: Who did you say you were again? ___: I told you once, we must embark       Now test your legs and jump my friend. ___: But it's so deep, and it's so dark       Are you so sure that this is right? ___: Remember when she laughed at you       I know you see her face at night       For all those bows and hearts you drew       What was it worth when it was done? ___: It's true, that ghost torments my eyes       I know I've lost but who has won?       Have I not time to say goodbyes? ___: Just say hello when you are there       It's not so hard, just take that leap       And fall with purpose, not with care,       You won't regret when your asleep. ___:Are you so sure? ___:                           Already said!       Can't you see I wouldn't lie       Can't you get that through your head       I know you know you want to fly. ___: And why should I believe in you? ___: Because my friend, we share a name. ___: I don't believe this can be true! ___: Believe it, friend, we are the same. ___: Then all you say, I say myself. ___: And now that you have realized        It's time to put life on the shelf. ___: Oh, why am I so mesmerized       Your voice is like a crystal bell;       Your hand is like an angels wings       And yet, I know it's sent from hell       Oh why, oh why, this siren sings? ___: It sounds so good and feels so right        And you and I, we both know why        It smells like daisies in the light        It tastes like homemade cherry pie.        The daggered rocks await your fate. ___: Those welcome terra-cotta homes        But don't they wait to mutilate? ___: But sing you songs and write you poems!        If I could take the words I spew        And make a flashing neon sign        Perhaps you'd see my words are true        And realize that it is time. ___: Please, don't do it! ___:                              I CAN'T do it! ___: I won't do it! ___:                       We've been through it! ___: Should I do it...? ___:                           See? You knew it! ___: Can I do it? ___:                   Always knew it.       Now nothing more is left unsaid       Our souls await that warm caress       It's time that you and me were dead.       This life is always so much less ___: To live would be my only crime        Oh god, I feel that awful lump! ___: Now lose your soul, 'cause it is time        Just jump, just JUMP, just JUMP, just JUMP!
