Hadar - Ropes (feat. KJ McNeill, Joshua Bessinger & Sharon Martin)

You reap the ending that you sow
Tug my heart strings even though
In time your forfeit won the fight
You went and left so I'd be right
Seesaws bobbing up and down
Treetops swaying with their trunks fixed to the ground
Mothers rock their babies to and fro
The pendulum swings
Which way you never know
You never know
Ropes drawn tight with strain
Pull us different ways
Tears like drops of rain
Sink in before it frays
Ropes brace us up so brace yourself
The strain is heart to take
And we break
The wind is blowing east to west
Day turns to night
History's the rest
Trying hard to just give in
And let the ending now begin
Ropes drawn tight with strain
Pull us different ways
Tears like drops of rain
Sink in before it frays
Ropes brace us up so brace yourself
The strain is heart to take
And we break
A rope that pulls the corset taught
And set my stomach in a knot
A rope of pearls wrapped as a noose is
Reminding me there's no excuses
Ropes that bear the sails of ships
Slipping through my fingertips
A rope that draws the curtain
And all we know for certain is
Ropes drawn tight with strain
Pull us different ways (for goodness sake)
Though my heart will break (ropes brace us up so brace yourself
the strain is heart to take)
I will not break
Ropes drawn tight with strain
Pull us different ways
Tears like drops of rain
Sink in before it frays
Ropes brace us up so brace yourself
The strain is heart to take
And we break
And we break
