I’m not the boy that you met last night   With the whisky coke and the guilty smile   I’m a mass of sorry secrets   And they’re tangled up in twine   Because I worry that I won’t stay detached   From the currency and the loveless hands   But I hope somebody needs me   And all the troubles I contain      If it is so then I wish you near to me   If it is so then I wish you near to me   Caught in the rope   Everyone dies to be free   If it is so, then I hope you never leave   Yeah I hope you never leave   I hope you never leave      Sweat it out and I’m here again   It’s just the black ink from a poisoned pen   If I’m trying to stay conscious   Then that’s the way that it should be   I’m an actor playing dead it seems   With the melodrama and the tragedy   I’m sure I’d fall in love with you   If I could just open my eyes      If it is so then I wish you near to me   If it is so then I wish you near to me   Caught in the rope   Everyone dies to be free   If it is so, then I hope you never leave   Yeah I hope you never leave   I hope you never leave      If it is so then I wish you near to me   If it is so then I wish you near to me   Caught in the rope   Everyone dies to be free   If it is so, then I hope you never leave   Yeah I hope you never leave   I hope you never leave
