The Ropes - Honest Men

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 myself, 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 myself, 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 myself, 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 myself, I think I’ll go alone

Go alone
