[Verse 1]
She climbed onto the iron balustrade
And balanced on the edge
She stared into the endless deep
Got ready for her final act
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Post-Chorus]
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
Death shall have no dominion, honey
The drunk Welshman said
And on our path into oblivion
These wise words shall be spread
[Chorus]
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
[Post-Chorus]
[Bridge]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Post-Chorus]
[Instrumental]

[Verse 5]
I never meant to jump down, honey
The young girl pacified
I wanted to remember how good it feels to be alive
