Ropes

I keep trying to drown my sorrows away
But it seems that they know how to swim
So I take another drink to fill up the bay
That I keep all of my demons in
A dull knife for a dull life
I wish at least one was sharp
Cold nights with no light
Seem appropriately dark

These ropes!
That held the bridge across this rift
Have broken
But I'll use the rest to climb this cliff
'cause I've never wanted
Anything more in my whole life
Than to reach the top
So I'll give it all I've got

I keep having these dreams that haunt me every night
And you are the reoccurring star
Lighting up my mind like stadium lights
But your presence is still so very far
And I've found that I'm let down
Every time that I wake
This town, the lights and sounds
Are reminders of this fate

These ropes!
That held the bridge across this rift
Have broken
But I'll use the rest to climb this cliff
'cause I've never wanted
Anything more in my whole life
Than to reach the top
So I'll give it all I've got

And then after you offed
I just cried and cried
And I had to leave town
Because everything reminded me of you
Trust me
I never knew how much I hurt you
Until you were gone
(Until you were gone)

These ropes
That held the bridge across this rift
Have broken
But I'll use the rest to climb this cliff
'cause I've never wanted
Anything more in my whole life
Than to reach the top
So I'll give it all I've got
