Jump In The River
The phone calls Always left me unsure They'd never say things Of their own accord I am preoccupied I can't get them out of my mind They are terrified And if you said jump in the river I would because It would probably be a good idea You're not supposed to be here at all now It's all been a gorgeous mistake Sick one or clean one or best one God ever made When I kissed you You didn't mind I thought I tasted of too many cigarettes But you tasted like wine And I'm not going to change my mind Just because of what they said The worm has laid eggs in their hearts But not in my head If you said jump in the river I would because It would probably be a good idea You're not supposed to be here at all now It's all been a gorgeous mistake Sick one or clean one or the best one God ever made There's been days like this before, you know And I liked it all Like the times we did it so hard There was blood on the wall And if you said jump in the river I would Because it would probably be a good idea And if you said jump in the river I would Because it would probably be a good idea
