Your cold fingers grip the ropes
d**hly silent on the slopes
We clutch misleading hopes
They'll forget you in time
Slackened cable, lifeline spent
I've started my descent
Slowly shed your side
Gradient's my guide
I'm sorry I had to go
Your shoulder jolting in the snow
When I leave my path won't show
They'll forget you in time
I'm going to slip outside
I could be quite some time
Slowly shed your side
Gradient's my guide
With these decisions in mind
I'm willing to sacrifice
Anything, anything
With these decisions in mind
I'm willing to sacrifice
Anything, anything
You'll never know
Twitching in the snow
The guide rope was to give
It was never to take
Balanced on that frozen lake
There's hope in the honest mistake
At least I hope so, for my sake
At least I hope so, as you shake
Slowly shed your side
Gradient's my guide
With these decisions in mind
I'm willing to sacrifice
Anything, anything
With these decisions in mind
I'm willing to sacrifice
Anything, anything
You'll never know
Twitching in the snow
Everything will be alright
I'm willing now to sacrifice
Everything will be alright
I'm willing now to sacrifice
Everything will be alright
I'm willing now to sacrifice
Everything will be just fine
I'm so sorry, you know I tried
