The Drunk Welshman

T: Matthias Ambré & Marcus Testory – M: Matthias Ambré & Marcus Testory

She climbed onto the iron balustrade
and balanced on the edge
She stared into the endless deep,
got ready for her final act

Whatever harmed or hurt you, honey
The drunk Welshman said
It's never worth to give in darling
come on, let's have a drink instead

Cause, there's nothing cool about dying
There's nothing cool in saying goodbye
There's nothing cool about dying
There's nothing cool in saying goodbye

Her body shivered from the cold,
a gale was blowing through her hair
She smiled and stood straight as a pole
and raised her arms into the air

Death shall have no dominion, honey
The drunk Welshman said
And on our path into oblivion
These wise words shall be spread

Cause, there's nothing cool about...

Take your life by the hand
No, don't waste your time
Take your life by the hand
Don't wait for the promised land

There's nothing cool...

I never meant to jump down, honey
The young girl pacified
