Trust

So what's there to stop me from jumping?
The drivers of the trains apologising for delays and they charge you like they've taken you to the moon and back
And you hate it when all the strangers stare at you
But you hate it even more when they make you feel ignored and they pass you like you're just another one of them
The animals roam two by two
Seems like everyone is flirting but your breakup is still hurting and you only want to talk to someone you've never met
And your friends won't leave you alone
They're only friends when it suits but it's pointless to refute them because you need them to distract you from your cell
Taxi after taxi passes by
Another service station, another steel creation on the travellator motorway that hauls us along
And the days you spend inside the television
Another advert for a loan, another stolen mobile phone and it all just drives you to sleep

And it turns out as you were wrong but never told anyone so they all still think that you were right
And you're living in denial but it'll last you for a while at least long enough to make it through the night
Another comedy distraction, a complete over-reaction, there must be something more out there
As you're trudging through the rain to catch another train the monotony stops you being scared
Of the dark and broken streets, they're rendered obsolete by the scent of similarity
And you're sick of all the bars and blinded by the stars that fade into reality
This life is just a game, you play your part and pass the blame while everything is growing so dark
But you are glowing white because you can't block the light and it's showing up every scar
Another night out on the town and your head is spinning round and the predators all come out hunting
And I know I can't compete so I silently retreat so what's there to stop me from jumping?

She never finishes a conversation if she can't forsee herself in a relationship with him
