Keeping Secrets Closure
Climb the stairway to your death
Step up to the ledge and
Hear the breeze rush past your ears
(Rush past your ears)
It sings to you a song
As you go falling to the ground
There’s no turning back
Think of all the things you didn’t say
Alert the paramedics to scrape your body off the street
They make no difference now
After the impact sounded you spilled the secrets you’d
like to keep
As you hit the blood splatters
Alert the paramedics to scrape your body off the street
In the shape of a broken heart
After the impact sounded you spilled the secrets you’d
like to keep
Fall quickly
Die hard
You were too weak to live
I sit perched and focus my hearing
Frantic footsteps are evidence of the panic
Down below foreshadowing the fall
My eyes radiate to mirrored flashing images of me
A streak from sky to ground a downward rainbow
From skyscraper to pavement still foreshadowing the
ground
Yet still me eyes radiate to mirrored flashing images
of this
No need to carry me away because before I hit the
ground I’ll be an angel
Before I hit the ground I’ll sprout wings
Falling past this building wishing it would fall so I
can see
Something great other than this turn to shambles
Because before I hit the ground I’ll be an angel
Before I hit the ground I’ll sprout wings
