Can we cross
That awful terrifyingly vast
Lengthy black bridge
That separates the two of us?
It burns down
Running, running, rushing away
Faster, faster, farther
Can you make it, dear?
Laughter echoes
Through the night
You're hanging from a ledge
Gasping, nearly crying, slipping
Reaching for you
You can't, can't die, not now
We have to win; we need you
Victory can't come without you
Without you
What a dismal existence
Since you've been here
Since the very beginning
Get a foothold
Strength, adrenaline assists
Gasping, here, don't fall
You're here by our side forever
