Tie the Rope Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm in envy of addicts, you're obsessed with stars
Don't— don't you sound so excited showing me your vanity
Whisper it once, just a little bit
Come on, whisper it twice
I can't stand to see the spotlight shine one more night
It's killing me to see you

[Chorus]
Just tie the rope, oh, and kick the chair
Just leave me hanging there gasping for air, yeah
Don't mind me three feet from the ceiling

[Verse 2]
You'd rather watch me drown than see your hands get wet
You took the plot from stage to screen and turned it to an epic scene
So, whisper it once, tell me again
Come on, whisper it twice
I can't stand to see my whole life flash before my eyes
When I'm with you, there's, no point in breathing
No point in breathing

[Chorus]
Just tie the rope, oh, and kick the chair
Just leave me hanging there gasping for air, yeah
Don't mind me three feet from the ceiling
And I think I know, whoa, whoa, why you never get too close
It's 'cause you're too scared to
When I'm with you there's no point in breathing

[Bridge]
So— so you run away for no apparent reason
'Cause you and I are changing with the seasons
You give me an answer as to why you're leaving
The table's full, nobody's been dealing so fold your hand
Go on and fold your hand

[Chorus]
Just tie the rope, oh, and kick the chair
Just leave me hanging there gasping for air, yeah
Don't mind me three feet from the ceiling
I think I know, whoa, whoa, why you never get too close
It's 'cause you're too scared to
When I'm with you there's no point in breathing
No point in breathing
No point in breathing
