Please?

Well, In the deadly calm after the storm Rain quietly dripping down Washing both the blood and the smiles Off my frightened face In the quiet aftermath Of what you could call a life After I've seen it all After I've murdered me So many times Like the fool I am Well, I was ready to just give up I guess Become another soldier And die someday, easily I was ready to fall asleep You know Living a stranger's life Well, Here you are now Just looking at me like It's the first day again I'm wiser than that But I'm a fool, I guess 'Cause already Before I could catch my breath I've jumped off the cliff Again So please, but I don't really mind I can handle another fall I guess But please, Catch me This time around
