windy and a long way down the people pulsing through the streets unrestrained there's traffic and cars honking and all i can see is life movement there's people below these skyscrapers that are alive and have things to hope for and i am not one of them windy and it's getting dark now and i'm almost out of whiskey so it's now or never before i loose my nerve before the reckless abandon stops coursing through my veins before i forget why the hell it is that i'm up here in the first place the bottle clunks on the ground hollow completely empty and i knew i should have brought another with me or maybe picked a taller building but as it is there is nothing above me all else is below skyscrapers all else is tiny and insignificant and selfish and **** it why not just jump windy fast unbreathable cold sharp below skyscrapers

Below Skyscrapers
windy and a long way down the people pulsing through the streets unrestrained there's traffic and cars honking and all i can see is life movement there's people below these skyscrapers that are alive and have things to hope for and i am not one of them windy and it's getting dark now and i'm almost out of whiskey so it's now or never before i loose my nerve before the reckless abandon stops coursing through my veins before i forget why the hell it is that i'm up here in the first place the bottle clunks on the ground hollow completely empty and i knew i should have brought another with me or maybe picked a taller building but as it is there is nothing above me all else is below skyscrapers all else is tiny and insignificant and selfish and **** it why not just jump windy fast unbreathable cold sharp below skyscrapers
