Ropes Songtext
von Princeton (Finnish prog-rock)

Looking back it all looks so sad
No one told me I′m sleepwalking
With a bunch of drunken nomads
Finding always reason for balking

The zombies around me are dragging me down
The reason I'm still here... I really don′t know

We go way back, but I forgot the last time we saw a light
At the end of this godforsaken tunnel
'Cause our flag is never white

The anger inside me is distorting my eyes
We used to blame the world for the scars in our hands

When the sea is frozen
At last I see
I've been afraid
To fall behind from the train that I should leave
I fell behind with the dream I misconceived


The moment of truth
Can you change who you are?
You never left square one
Will you ever get too far?

I′m holding the dice in my hand
But it′s so hard to roll 'em and see
What′s after so many years of yesterday

Sometimes you're stuck in a wrong place way too long
You see the way out, but you somehow hope to get along

I′m rolling

I'm still alone with the dice in my hand
Staring at the hourglass, counting the sand

I′m rolling

What you gonna do with the one walk of life?
Forgive myself
Lay down my arms

Rolling

I fall far away from the dream
I fall but I'm ready to dream
No more lies
I paint the colours I see
No more lies
I show my cards to be free
