letra de jumper - jack rootes

(verse 1)

this story is set up on a bridge quite high
a man stands before the rail, arms wide
dressed in a black suit, complete with a red tie
he’s hesitant, but he wants to wish the world goodbye
finishing a sandwich that he brought at the shop
he climbs over the rail, below a 100 story drop
in his throat, he begins to feel a forming lump
then he hears somebody scream “he’s gonna jump!”

almost immediately, a crowd forms at the bottom
but he doesn’t want attention, he wants to be forgotten
people screaming that he’s got a lot to live for
but he’s just focused on getting through death’s door
he screams back “leave me alone, all i want to do is zoom……
at 100mph downwards to certain doom!”
he thinks this at first, then shouts it out loud
as the sun begins to disappear behind a cloud
as he screams…..

[hook]

go on with your lives, just let me be
and let my life end this way
i’m not important after all
i’ll be forgotten by the end of the day
and even if you care
i don’t need your sympathy
all this pain i’ve harboured up inside
soon, i’ll be free
once i jump

[verse 2]

he merely wishes to rid the world of his existence
next thing he knows, he hears sirens in the distance
below, he sees a couple of cars with flashing red and blue lights
police getting out their cars, looking up at the high heights
but still he clings to the rail, looking into the evening sky
his empty vehicle sitting abandoned by the roadside
police below begging him to hold on to the railing
but he couldn’t think about all the things he should be detailing

a rumble of thunder startles him as the sky begins to rain
a 5 second fall will get rid of all the pain inside his brain
yet still he hesitates, as the rain hits the bridge and his face
mixed with tears from the abuse he gets at his place
they say “sir please, you don’t need to do this!”
he says “f-ck you all! my death is my only wish!”
there’s now a whole army of emergency service
(“we’re coming up to get you”)
that phrase makes him nervous
[hook]

[verse 3]

the officers stay true to their word and are up there
trying to talk him out of it, but he doesn’t care
i just wants to escape the rough life that he has
that cursed him ever since the death of his dad
his mother remarried another man, attitude so ill
he berated and beat them, he was pure filth!
he called the police, but due to a convincing depiction
and lack of evidence, they couldn’t make a conviction

suddenly he hears his mother below in the crowd
below screaming and crying really loud
she told him they both divorced a few weeks prior
it turned out easy money was his step-dad’s desire
with that news, he felt like he had no strife
so with that, he decided not to take his own life
he turned around and climbed the rail, loosening his grip
but to everyone’s horror, the rain suddenly made him slip!

[-crowd sceaming-]
[-crash & car alarm-]
‘the gallows’ sample: “oh my god!”
[-lightning-]
shepard smith (sampled from fox news): “no. get it off, get it off, get it off, get it off, get it off, get it off. get off it. get off it! get off it!”
[hook]

[outro]

shepard smith: “we created a…. a 5 second delay as if you were to bleep back your dvr 5 seconds. that’s what we did with the picture we were showed you. so that we would see in the studio what was happening 5 seconds before you did. so that if anything went horribly wrong, we’d be able to cut away from it, without subjecting you to it. and we really messed up. and we’re all very sorry. sometimes, we see a lot of things that we don’t let get to you, because it’s not time appropriate, it’s insensitive, it’s just wrong. and that was wrong. and that won’t happen again on my watch and i’m sorry. we’ll update you on what happened with that guy and how that went down, tonight on the fox report. i’m sorry.”
