Damn
Water under the bridge
Well, I'll be dammed
There's nothing flowing pass
It looks like such a perfect view to jump
Looking down
Not looking up
But it doesn't stop the current
Here and now
No I'm not proud
Finding strength as it slips away
Stopped by the boulder
Just trying to get over
Setting Sun
Nowhere to run
Done is done
A simple sentence that hits hard
Maybe it'll dislodge
Waterlogged
Under the bridge
That gaps beneath
Where I'm meant to sleep
Accepted conclusion
Puddles up the swan song
I'll just lie to myself and move on
Well, I'll be dammed
There's nothing flowing pass
It looks like such a perfect view to jump
Looking down
Not looking up
But it doesn't stop the current
Here and now
No I'm not proud
Finding strength as it slips away
Stopped by the boulder
Just trying to get over
Setting Sun
Nowhere to run
Done is done
A simple sentence that hits hard
Maybe it'll dislodge
Waterlogged
Under the bridge
That gaps beneath
Where I'm meant to sleep
Accepted conclusion
Puddles up the swan song
I'll just lie to myself and move on
