Sunshine

[Verse 1] Standing on out on the Edge of the building Watching the traffic below Drinking a beer and Thinking of jumping Not far from ready to go [Verse 2] Below me the crowd Slowly gathers around Cops cars with news cameras too I just can't get out of This pain I'm in And I don't know what else to do [Verse 3] Sometimes I feel like I'm so uninvited Like somethin' so out of touch They tell me depression Runs in the family Well, that doesn't help me much [Verse 4] The crowd's yelling "jump" Over a cop on a bullhorn Making him harder to hear He's saying something about Having so much to live for I'm almost through with my beer (Whistling) [Verse 5] Squinting my eyes to See through the sunlight The crowd's even bigger now There's no point in wondering What afterlife's like It don't matter anyhow [Verse 6] We're already in hell As far as I can tell Just listen to these people scream This feels like a rally In a high school field house I feel like the captain of the team Well, here goes the captain of the team (Whistling) [Verse 7] Follow the light to The Garden of Eden You stand at the Pearly Gate Saint Peter comes over His hand on my shoulder He's tellin' me I gotta wait [Chorus] He says, "You know you can't kill yourself and still get in here, kid "But you look like a victim of circumstance "So I'm just gonna break every bone in your body "And give you another chance" [Verse 8] Wakin' up slowly Lookin' around me A lonely recovery room But closing my eyes, I Can see the new sunrise Over acres of flowers in bloom [Verse 9] I don't know when it will be But the next time you see me I'll be tappin' to a whole new beat Walking soles [/souls?] into The holes of my shoes Down the sunny side of the street Sunshine (Whistling)
