Turned pale gasping for air
Hands tied on top of a chair
Time goes by so callously

Outside walking around
Seem free but carefully bound
Woken everytime I sleep

Though I wouldn't dream it
If I hadn't seen it
Staring out

No one could deserve this
Hanging from a rope that never ends
Every second I'm nervous

Still think there's a purpose
Waiting for the slack to reach it's end
It can't be long now

Think slow but fast on the draw
Let slip the things that I saw
Tangled up inside my head
And I can't forget them
Wait for the doorknob to turn
Lie wake waiting to learn
Dreams bleed out into my bed
And I'm lying in them

Though I wouldn't dream it
If I hadn't seen it
Staring out

No one could deserve this
Hanging from a rope that never ends
Every second I'm nervous

Still think there's a purpose
Waiting for the slack to reach it's end
It can't be long now

Ships are floating away
Ships are floating away
Ships are floating away

Not enough for me
Not enough for me

No one could deserve this
Hanging from a rope that never ends
Every second I'm nervous

Still think there's a purpose
Waiting for the slack to reach it's end
It can't be long now
It can't be long now
It can't be long now
