Fredrik Hermansson - Rope Ends lyrics

She is still young Another day of emptiness This life is wearing her down The room around her is a mess Her children safe with her mom She is still young but feeling old Two children with different fathers She sits on the bathroom floor alone The shower chain broke, her neck hurts Then another night of emptiness to wear her down Naked to the world she wraps her sadness in a gown Her children fast asleep she sears the dark with gla**y eyes Choosing carefully among her husband's business ties "Over!" she cries through rope ends and silk ties Beautiful life escaping her young blue eyes "Over!" she cries (But life holds her hands) Through rope ends and silk ties (Refusing to let go) Beautiful life (Leaving her breathing) Escaping her young blue eyes (On the floor) They're still asleep don't hear her cry And she's still obsessed with rope ends This time she picks a stronger tie With Winnie the Pooh and friends She is still young but feeling old A child dying to be a mother Now she hangs from the ceiling all alone All pressure is falling from her Seeing guilt has taught her guilt she's raised on disbelief Merely twenty beautiful but with a taste for grief She has learnt all that there is to know about hopelessness Seeing that no effort in this world can stand her test "Over!" she cries (And Winnie is strong) Through rope ends and silk ties (Would never let her fall) Beautiful life (Prevents her from breathing) Escaping her young blue eyes ('Till she's not there at all) "Over!" she cries (But life holds her hands) Through rope ends and silk ties (Refusing to let go) Beautiful life (Leaving her breathing) Escaping her young blue eyes (On the floor) Seeing guilt has taught her guilt she's raised on disbelief Merely twenty beautiful but with a taste for grief She has learnt all that there is to know about helplessness Seeing that no caring in this world can ease her stress Helpless she lies (The ceiling let go) In rope ends and undies (The old house let her fall) Unseeing eyes(Dropping her breathing) Fixating Eeyore's smile (To the hard cold floor) "Over!" she cries (Hitting her head) As she's going unblind (A broken china soul) Still in this life (red stains on porcelain) Still in this troubled mind (And she's not there at all) Breathing she cries (Blackened and bruised) For rope ends and silk ties (Learning how to see) Beautiful eyes (Staring at her tooth) Piglet stands shy behind (Crimsoned ivory) Broken she lies (Hours they pa**) Undead and unblind (This broken china soul) Beautiful life (Red stains on porcelain) Beautiful crying young eyes (And she's not there at all)
