I Am A River Child
there's a bridge abouve the ferris wheel
isn't it pretty? the lights?
the water is dark
and i can't see the moon anymore
"win another bet"
"win another bet"
when he sits down beside her,
i go for a walk
is the water cold, i wonder
it's dark loving arms holding me like I wish you would
i write my compulsions here to keep me from jumping
if i walked out
on the bridge, on the bridge
would you scream when i jumped
would you all wrack your brains
yell 'someone please save her!'
would it feel like a rollarcoaster
like the one where you tried to hold her hand
stomach in throat
would i regret it?
would i think 'oh god, what have i done?' just before the water holds me
snaps my neck
fills my lungs with her black fluid
as the saint lawrence takes her own
would anyone cry?
