Lyrics to The Ropes
Never thought I’d miss the mark
I lost my way
Comfortable with growing old
Wore out my stay
Writing’s on the wall tonight
Shadow proves the fading light
Invincible but miserable
Is this just fate

My life is on the ropes
I’m talking to myself
Saying you’re not alone
Not alone
It’s something no one knows
Save me from my self
I think I’ll go alone
Go alone

Hesitate and complicate
I’m in my head
Locking up my house of love
I’ll suffocate
Give me something to define
Truth exists to prove I’m right
So listen up, is that enough
My head’s on straight
My life is on the ropes
I’m talking to myself
Saying you’re not alone
Not alone
It’s something no one knows
Save me from my self
I think I’ll go alone
Go alone

What’s a name but everything
A calling card
Something I’ll once in a while
Believe’s a scar
It’s not that I’m alone in life
Or hate what I’ve been given
I write it down, I spell it out
I’ve come this far

My life is on the ropes
I’m talking to myself
Saying you’re not alone
Not alone
It’s something no one knows
Save me from my self
I think I’ll go alone
Go alone
My life is on the ropes
I’m talking to myself
Saying you’re not alone
Not alone
It’s something no one knows
Save me from my self
I think I’ll go alone
Go alone
