Ropes Lyrics by Bryan Lanning

2017

(Verse 1)
I fought every chance of us getting here
But somehow we always come back
Cause slamming doors was a way of making us a home
And I never thought we wanted that

(Pre-Chorus)
Oh, so I wanna know which way to go
Cause the things we say, and things we don't are like ropes
Yeah, they are keeping us tied down

(Chorus)
And i'm trying hard to fix it
But I just can't get enough
And my heart is my worst witness
Cause it knows that i'm in love
It knows, it knows that i'm in love
It knows that i'm in love, it knows
But when we, fight our tongues tie us down like they're ropes

(Verse 2)
You were afraid of the mirrors and what they'd show
But I never cared about what happened last
Thought you'd let go, let go, so that we could get home
But you kept holding on (holding on)
Now we can't seem to pass the past

(Pre-Chorus)
Oh, so I wanna know which way to go
Cause the things we say, and things we don't are like ropes
Yeah, they are keeping us tied down

(Chorus)
And i'm trying hard to fix it
But I just can't get enough
And my heart is my worst witness
Cause it knows that i'm in love
It knows, it knows that i'm in love
It knows that i'm in love, it knows

(Bridge)
We can't tell ourselves
That we don't need some help
Because this hurts like hell
No matter what we do
And I seem tied to you I don't wanna run
I just want me and you to be okay

(Chorus)
And i'm trying hard to fix it
But I just can't get enough
And my heart is my worst witness
Cause it knows that i'm in love
It knows

(Chorus)
And i'm trying hard to fix it
But I just can't get enough
And my heart is my worst witness
Cause it knows that i'm in love
It knows, it knows that i'm in love
It knows that i'm in love, it knows

(Outro)
But when we, fight our tongues tie us down like they're ropes
