there are these to kids. One of them is trying to get his friend to stop thinking about suicid and is trying to convince him that "everyone has a reason to put the past away" and start over. he says that he knows it might be hard for him and that he would understand if after he helped him he didn't want to see him again. Its a beautiful song.
The song Jumper discusses a boy who did not fit in and who was angry at the world. The narrator starts stanza one by listing various troubles that make this person an outcast. Such as, “you’re the first to fight, you’re way to loud.” He also sings “you’re the flash of light on a burial shroud.” This means to say that sometimes people are discriminated against because of their differences. Due to this persons suffering, they become depressed. The singer then encourages the boy to put his past away and step off of the subsequent ledge. In the next stanza,...

In the next stanza, the phrase “he is on the table and he’s gone to code” is a metaphor for the medical term code blue. The song then moves on to enunciate the theme which is you should not let what happens in your past affect your future. For example, the narrator says, “We all have to face down our demons” and “put the past away.” The lyrical tone of Jumper is somber. This is because it had a more serious meaning to its lines. For instance, the song talks about suicide and when dealing with this issue there is no time for hesitation. The angry boy ends up dieing after committing suicide. Although, the song’s musical tone is much different. It is upbeat and happy. I found this interesting because one of the most depressing and serious issues is being discussed. The narrator also has a very caring voice as he sings about suicide.
