The rope is so thin Why do you still cling? Any moment could be its end Its edges are fraying already The rope is so thin Why is it so thin? It took so much work to make You love it so deeply The rope is so thin But yet so powerful It has done so much for you It has given you hope The rope is so thin Your arm is getting tired Your heart is broken Will you hold on? You look down There is a cushion a hundred feet below You look up There is a fair lady and joy above But on the way to it A million hearts broken A thousand dreams crushed Is it worth the struggle? The rope is so thin It will snap soon It is slipping away What will you do?

The Rope
The rope is so thin Why do you still cling? Any moment could be its end Its edges are fraying already The rope is so thin Why is it so thin? It took so much work to make You love it so deeply The rope is so thin But yet so powerful It has done so much for you It has given you hope The rope is so thin Your arm is getting tired Your heart is broken Will you hold on? You look down There is a cushion a hundred feet below You look up There is a fair lady and joy above But on the way to it A million hearts broken A thousand dreams crushed Is it worth the struggle? The rope is so thin It will snap soon It is slipping away What will you do?
