I'M STANDING ON THE LEDGE by LadyRemington


I'm standing on the ledge 
Insanity pushing me towards the edge 
I can see for miles 
High up on this mount 
The cliff face I'm standing on 
Miles high 
I feel as if I can touch the sky 
I fling a rock and watch it fly 
Wonder how long it'd take to hit the ground 
The gravity is calling me 
Wrapping it's tendrils around my feet 
I can hear it calling my name 
Whispering promises in my ear 
Begging me to jump 
Calling me to it's lair 
A gently breeze starts to blow 
Ruffling the leaves in the nearby trees 
Running it's fingers through my hair 
I wish you were here 
Holding onto me 
Keeping me from jumping 
Letting gravity have it's way with me 
Gravity won't have to force me 
For I'll willingly go 
Anywhere it calls me 
I'll follow it anywhere 
I climb into a tree 
Longing to see more of the world 
I walk out on a branch 
Letting out a scream 
On the count of three 
I'm giving into gravity 
One, two, 
No wimping out now 
Three and fall 
Into gravity's waiting embrace 
And as I start to fall 
I look up 
And see your heartbroken face
