Rope On Fire Lyrics - Morphine

Hand over hand up the lifeline 

Luckily the knots stay tight 

Silhouettes of the two of us climbing 

Climbing up a rope on fire, climbing up a rope on fire 

Trapped in a room in a fortress 

Running outta air to breathe 

Only seconds to go and we'll break free 

I didn't think that we would reach 

Only the two of us can disconnect the bomb 

And save ourselves before the oxygen is gone 

I'll call for backup, you start to scream 

It's not the first time we've been in this dream

She ripped the wings right off my back 

She whispered deep, "Keep it on the track" 

She said, "You're no angel, no angel anymore" 

All the wheels are coming loose, close-up shot of a burning fuse 

The sky is filled with question marks, will the chains come apart? 

These few seconds that I've left to go, flames and chaos down below 

And the earth opens wide, got to climb a rope on fire 

Look at the clock, look at the clock 

Make it to the car but the car won't start 

Me try to move the car but there's no more time 

We'll have to climb a rope on fire 

Hand over hand up the lifeline 

Luckily the knots stay tight 

Silhouettes of the two of us climbing 

Climbing up a rope on fire, climbing up a rope on fire

Only the two of us can disconnect the bomb 

Then save ourselves before the oxygen is gone 

I'll call for backup, you start to scream 

It's not the first time we've been in this dream
