So here's the whole song:
[Intro]
[Verse 2x]
There is a dream
I used to have
My dream swallowed me whole
There is a bridge
Where I hate to go
That is where I first saw her
[Riff 2x]
High on the bridge
I've seen her
Red hair shining
[Verse 2x]
There is a girl
I never knew
She was my aunt Viginia
They said that she
she just disappeared
They said I looked just like her
[Chorus 4x muted]
High on the bridge
I've seen her
Dancing and waving to me there
She smiled and raised her head
and she took to the air
[Verse 2x with distortion]
The is a dream
I can't escape
My memories come back to me
There is a hell
I can't escape
My memories come back to me
[Chorus 4x with distortion]
I hear the truth about it
pictures and headlines
Hidden away
I heard the truth about my real mom
Jumping from the bridge that day
[Bridge 4x with distorton]
Now I know why ever since I was three years old
been having the same nightmare
Now I know the truth about Virginia
and why she took to the air
[Verse clean]
[Play solo over verse clean]
Well that's about all of it.
