Swinging Lyrics - Headstones

Thinking of swinging from a thread 

Coiled tightly around my neck 

Will an exposed pipe hold the weight of fears 

Thinking of jumping from this spot 

Well it's 52 stories 'til I hit the mark 

Will the concrete waiting absorb the strain of the years 

Bright lights are flashing, they hold me to my spot 

I've got 2 seconds to get away or 52 until I drop 

Well the whole thing is swinging it's a vicious and ugly curve 

Electrocution where I lay 

The taps are running and the radio plays 

Will the water rolling absorb the strain of the shock 

Shake that carcass, well that used to be your life 

Before it consummates its love with an exposed pipe 

Will the water rolling absolve you from all the things that you're not 

If you really want to do it, do it slow 

Real pain is the only way to go 

You've got to savour the flavour 

Self-destruction's a most attainable game 

Pick yourself up, develop an addiction 

Alcohol's a good one combined with sports, hunting, and fishing 

Whole thing is vicious it's a most peculiar game 

Shake that carcass, while it's hesitating 

Before it consummates its love with the concrete waiting 

Don't fool yourself into a quick and foolish end 

If you're happy with your life 

Roll over kiss your children and then your wife 

And say 

Jesus Christ I'm glad I never have thoughts like that
