Burning Rope
Every day's like a fist fight with myself,
This ain't going nowhere fast.
I watched them slip away
While I held on by a thread of this rope that's burning.
I saw them suffer in their final moments,
It's hard to find hope,
When you're surrounded by first hand failures
First hand failure,
I prayed to a God who I didn't believe,
Cause desperation was all I knew.
I tried and I tried to stand on my feet
But my mind just kept me to the ground
I prayed to a God who I didn't believe,
Cause desperation was all I knew.
I tried and I tried to stand on my feet
But my mind just kept me to the ground
I know this feeling all too well,
Cause every night is a living hell.
I'm down on my knees, down on my luck
I'm down on my luck.
I've felt like this from time to time,
And I'm not sleeping well at night.
I'm down on my knees, down on my luck.
I'm down on my luck.
Keep moving forward.
I prayed to a God who I didn't believe,
Cause desperation was all I knew
I tried and I tried to stand on my feet
But my mind just kept me to the ground.
I know this feeling all too well,
Cause every night is a living hell.
I'm down on my knees, down my luck
I'm down on my luck.
I've felt like this from time to time,
And I'm not sleeping well at night.
I'm down on my knees, down on my luck.
I'm down on my on my luck.
Never again, will I let someone in.
But I just kept telling myself that if the struggle was easy,
It wouldn't be worth it.
This ain't going nowhere fast.
I watched them slip away
While I held on by a thread of this rope that's burning.
I saw them suffer in their final moments,
It's hard to find hope,
When you're surrounded by first hand failures
First hand failure,
I prayed to a God who I didn't believe,
Cause desperation was all I knew.
I tried and I tried to stand on my feet
But my mind just kept me to the ground
I prayed to a God who I didn't believe,
Cause desperation was all I knew.
I tried and I tried to stand on my feet
But my mind just kept me to the ground
I know this feeling all too well,
Cause every night is a living hell.
I'm down on my knees, down on my luck
I'm down on my luck.
I've felt like this from time to time,
And I'm not sleeping well at night.
I'm down on my knees, down on my luck.
I'm down on my luck.
Keep moving forward.
I prayed to a God who I didn't believe,
Cause desperation was all I knew
I tried and I tried to stand on my feet
But my mind just kept me to the ground.
I know this feeling all too well,
Cause every night is a living hell.
I'm down on my knees, down my luck
I'm down on my luck.
I've felt like this from time to time,
And I'm not sleeping well at night.
I'm down on my knees, down on my luck.
I'm down on my on my luck.
Never again, will I let someone in.
But I just kept telling myself that if the struggle was easy,
It wouldn't be worth it.
