Cut the Rope

If all I had was this or that

To distract me of the fact that I lack the strength

To face and fight the fear that I'm insane

I've been hanging from these rafters for so long

Now it's time to cut the rope and move

Along the way I've made mistakes

Burned a bridge or two and dug some graves

of all the friends I wish they could've stayed

I've been strung up on these gallows in my mind

Stop looking in the past and start asking

Why do I take poison hoping that it will kill someone else

Strangled by this noose that I have tied myself

I wanna wash it down with my disease

Try to rinse it all away and it repeats

If all I had was him or her

To fool myself that I'm not alone in this world

To believe that my existence is deserved

I've been choking on the smoke of years ago

Now it's time to let it out and let it go

Why do I take poison hoping that it will kill someone else

Strangled by this noose that I have tied myself

I wanna wash it down with my disease

Try to rinse it all away and it repeats now

Take poison hoping that it will kill someone else

Strangled by this noose that I have tied myself

I wanna wash it down with my disease

Try to rinse it all away and it repeats

If all I had was this or that

To distract me of the fact that I lack the strength

To face and fight the fear that I must change

I've been swinging from these branches for so long

Now it's time to cut the rope and move along
