Heavy Rope Songtext

von Lights

Strange hands, taking my wrist again
Somehow I'm still alone
Voices shaking my steps again
I follow
I'm a little bit on the edge
Holed up, and out of reach
I can't hear much of what you said
Come for me

Don't let me tumble away
Into the throws of the shadowy bay
I cling to the rock, and it's crumbling off
Toss me a heavy rope, it's a slippery slope
Come bail me out of this God-forsaken precipice
Come bail me out of this God-forsaken precipice

Turned up in this old place again
Can't seem to get away
Take me back to my element
I'm afraid

Don't let me tumble away
Into the throws of the shadowy bay
I cling to the rock, and it's crumbling off
Toss me a heavy rope, it's a slippery slope
Come bail me out of this God-forsaken precipice
Come bail me out of this God-forsaken precipice

Oh, I'm not a lost cause
I'm just stuck in a spot
And I'm close to falling off
So toss me a heavy rope, it's a slippery slope
Come bail me out of this God-forsaken precipice
Come bail me out of this God-forsaken precipice

Don't let me tumble away
Into the throws of the shadowy bay
I cling to the rock, and it's crumbling off
Toss me a heavy rope, it's a slippery slope
Come bail me out of this God-forsaken precipice
Come bail me out of this God-forsaken precipice
Come bail me out of this God-forsaken precipice
Come bail me out of this God-forsaken precipice
