The Devil's Rope

This is only the beginning
Don't let go, I'm barely hanging by a thread
The devil's roped us both into believing this
Excuse me now for my discretion
But half of something's more than nothing
I believe that someday with your help
Girl, I will open up

When hope is calling and despair is on the line
When things you cherish vanish right before your eyes
I will be there
I, I will, I will, I will, so, so

Say let's not pretend we're not pretending here
Or get defensive when defending how we feel
It's okay for now, at least it's something real
And I'll hold on until I can't hold on
And I'll believe until believing's wrong
Never, say never ever again

When hope is calling and despair is on the line
When things you cherish vanish right before your eyes
I will be there
I, I will, I will, I will, so, so

Girl, I will
Girl, I will
I said just for you, just for you, just for you

When hope is calling and despair is on the line
When things you cherish vanish right before your eyes
When everyone you trust has completely lost their mind
Yeah, yeah, baby, I will be there
I will be there
Said I will be there
Yeah, child, said I will be there
I will be there
I, I will, I will, I will, so, so
