I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend
You could cut ties with all the lies that you've been livin in,
if you do not want to see me again
I will Under-sta---i-a---i-and
I will under-sta---i-a---i-and
The angry boy, a bit too insane,
icing over a secret pain,
I know somethin's wrong,
You're the first to fight, you're way to loud,
You're the flash of light, on a burial shroud
I know something's wrong
Well everyone I know has got a reason, to say, put the past away
I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend
You could cut ties with all the lies, that you've been livin in, a-and
if you do not want to see me again,
I would under-sta---i-a---i-and
I would Under-sta-a-a---i-a---i-and
Well he's on the table and he's gone ta code,
And I do not think an one know what they are,
doing here-er
And your friends have left, you've been dismissed,
I never thougt it would come to this, and
I, I want you to know-o
Everyone's got to face down the demons, maybe today,we can
put the past away
I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend
you could cut ties with all the lies that you've been livin,
a-and
if you do not want to see me again,
I would under-sta---i-a---i-and
I would under-sta---i-a---i-and
I would under-sta---i-a---i-a-and

About this song: Jumper
Lead singer Stephan Jenkins has said that the song "comes from a story our manager told us about a high school friend of his who was gay. He went to a conservative school in San Diego all sons of military types. Being gay was just not acceptable. He offed himself--he jumped off a bridge. The song is also about Jenkins' own difficult, often alienating childhood experiences, he says, "My parents divorced, and that hurt me. We were poor and I went to a rich high school. I was dyslexic and had Attention Deficit Disorder, which I still have.
