It's only a jump away,
From here to the burial stream,
It's only a jump away,
To get from point A to point B

My legs hang down freely,
Over the ledge I seat myself,
My palms they are sweating,
Will I kill myself?

It's only a jump away,
From here to the burial stream,
It's only a jump away,
To get from point A to point B

The fate of my death,
Isn't always up to me,
I have a perfect chance,
Should I wait,
You'll see.

It's only a jump away,
From here to the burial stream,
It's only a jump away,
To get from point A to point B

I sit only 10 feet above,
The gently glistening stream,
The one that is so peaceful,
The one that likes to sing.

It's only a jump away,
From here to the burial stream,
It's only a jump away,
To get from point A to point B

I stare through the movement,
To find the truth beneath,
What will happen to my body,
Will I rest in peace?

It's only a jump away,
From here to the burial stream,
It's only a jump away,
To get from point A to point B
