paroles de chanson Red Ropes - Nicole Atkins

You said you′d show me the ropes
As you tied me to the tracks
It didn't help to struggle
Lies were good as facts
For years and years you swore up and down
You were over it
Your eyes had seen the kingdom
A born again misfit
A born again misfit
Unraveling of timeless truths
Retracing other writers′ roots
The red rope binds in fast embrace
Some knots don't untie
Some knots do not untie
Pray for forgiveness
Cry for reprieve
Because the ties that bind don't come undone
As fast as you′d believed
Beg for a new heart
That breaks but does not bleed
And the red ropes are a viper′s nest
That you can never leave
Heaven hollowed out its veins
And fixed a hallowed man
You found the cure for pain
Swore you'd never hurt again
I′ll always be a prize fighter
Even up against the ropes
You'll always be a liar
Punch drunk on busted hopes
Pray for forgiveness
Cry for reprieve
Because the ties that bind don′t come undone
As fast as you'd believed
Beg for a new heart
That breaks but does not bleed
And the red ropes are a viper′s nest
That you can never leave
