Cut the Rope

I'm just a slave to ambition

Dreaming I can break free of systematic tradition

Every day it's rise & grind, 9 to 5, I'm dead inside

Just to wake up again tomorrow, yeah I’m terrified

Is this it? Is this all that they allow?

Still here shouting out my name to one day make it out

Locked inside of this so called dead end town

We ain't the same, I won’t go until they know my name

They drag me down

When you’re giving up hope cut the rope cut the rope

Constricted by design

I’m going out of my mind

My hearts still beating

Placing all my faith on myself

Can I break and breathe again

I will not wait for a bitter end

Even at an all time low

I just can’t fucking let go

Try to reach for connection

Feel the rage

Just wanna turn the page

I go through blood, sweat and tears just for minimum wage

It’s like fuel for my nightmares when I see the con

Watch the hourglass pour until my life’s gone

Tie the noose around my neck

Feel like they’re cheating the game

Stealing my wage, yeah, digging my grave, yeah

Little that’s keeping me sane

Ever-y-day

Just one fuckin paycheck away

Oh I’m going mad

Been numbing this pain, man

You don’t want to see the scars I been hiding you wouldn’t understand

They drag me down

When you’re giving up hope cut the rope cut the rope

Constricted by design

I’m going out of my mind

My hearts still beating

Placing all my faith on myself

Can I break and breathe again

I will not wait for a bitter end

Climb down from your pedestal

This feels like death from a thousand cuts

I cut the rope

Cut the rope
