No Parachute

No Parachute

A Poem by Travis Prino

Just surrender cause you're bleeding

and I'm not who you thought

so continue with your screaming

and I won't stop breaking your heart


you've seen better days than this

better ways to count your hours

you're no better than the rest

cause you let these thoughts devour

and you're standing on the ledge with no parachute


just remember when you're crying

that it won't be heard by anyone

so continue with your dying

and eventually your body goes numb


you've seen better days than this

better ways to count your hours

you're no better than the rest

cause you let these thoughts devour

and you're standing on the ledge with no parachute


it's December and you're breaking

cause you're by yourself in the snow

now continue with your shaking

till your blood begins to run cold


you've seen better days than this

better ways to count your hours

you're no better than the rest

cause you let these thoughts devour

and you're standing on the ledge with no parachute


when you're ready to jump

think of the ones you love

and the ones who love you

that want you to make it through

when you're ready to jump

think of the ones you love

and the ones who love you

that want you to make it through


you've seen better days than this

better ways to count your hours

you're no better than the rest

cause you let these thoughts devour

and you're standing on the ledge with no parachute.

Just a little caveat to my writing, 95% of what I write are lyrics so excuse the length and repetition and don't be deterred by that. Hope you enjoy. Feel free to comment. more..
