First You Jump – My Best Effort In Deciphering Lyrics.

Posted on September 5, 2022October 1, 2023 By Priptona 1 Comment on First You Jump – My Best Effort In Deciphering Lyrics.

Geez, I wish I was allowed to have a lyrics sheet before release! Lol. Nothing else – just let me be privy to lyrics. I’d be a happy bunny!

No time for any corresponding art with it just now. Still getting run around for the enrolment to my next uni module. Just when I think it’s all sorted and I can relax…holy sheet! I hate the enrolment process!

Anyway, a couple of words were;’t quite clear to me, but otherwise….

And if the world stops spinning
There’d be no sign
No future love
Only days behind
I call you
No matter what you put me through

And if the skies above
Turned to crimson red
Here (hear?) the memories
All you said
I call you
No matter what you put me through

First you jump
Then get wings
Escaping all that hurt you
The problems that they put you through
First you fall
Then flying
You’re taking in the new view
Becoming all you’re meant to

And if the world stops spinning
There’d be no end
Every twist every turn
Back again
I call you
No matter what you put me through

At first you jump
Into a world that’s free
Where all that said and seen* (?)
Is now reality
I call you
You’re the only that pulls me through

First you jump, then get wings
Forgetting all that ??? * you
Silence deep in your head
You once gave up
Now soaring
Heading for the clear view
No more will they haunt you

And if the world stops spinning
And if the world stops spinning
And if the world stops, stops… stops…stops…

First you jump
Then get wings
Escaping all that hurt you
The problems that they put you through
First you fall
Then flying
Taking in the new view
Becoming what you’re mean to
