Floating in the Forth

Lyrics

So you just stepped out
 Of the front of my house
 And I'll never see you again.
 I closed my eyes for a second
 And when they opened
 You weren't there.
 And the door shut shut
 I was vacuum packed,
 Shrink-wrapped out of air
 And the spine collapsed
 And the eyes rolled back
 To stare at my starving brain
 And fully clothed, I float away
 (I'll float away)
 Down the Forth, into the sea
 I think I'll save suicide for another day.
 ♪
 And I picture this corpse
 On the M8 hearse
 And I half run away to sleep
 On a rolled up coat
 Against the window
 With the strobe of the sun
 And the life I've led
 Am I ready to leap
 Is there peace beneath
 The roar of the Forth road bridge?
 On the Northern side
 There's a Fife of mine
 And a boat in the port for me
 And fully clothed, I float away
 (I'll float away)
 Down the Forth, into the sea
 I'll steer myself
 Through drunken waves
 These manic gulls
 Scream it's okay
 Take your life
 Give it a shake
 Gather up
 All your loose change
 I think I'll save suicide for another year.
