Bridge By John Carter

You can look at it all
In a positive light
But the positive light
Burned out last night

You don't know it all
But you know it ain't right
Why someone like you
Should have to fight

Trying to live
Flying too high
Finding the edge
And learning to cry

Fighting gravity
Standing over the ledge
And turning away
Walking off of the bridge

You see it so clear
It's not meant for you
But clear enough, you
Can see right through

Hoping for the best
Taking on the worst
If you settled for the rest,
That'd be a first

Trying to live
Flying too high
Finding the edge
And learning to cry

Fighting gravity
Standing over the ledge
And turning away
Walking off of the bridge...

(For a Friend...)
