The rope from which I'm hanging from 
F#                        C#   E A 
It is thinning, short and worn

I hope when I am reborn 
F#                               C#   E A 
There are knives where should be arms

I know, I know, I know, I wrote this 
E             C# 
I will not be pushed around 
A                                   E                   C# 
And so, and so, and so, I hope this makes you feel less overwhelmed

Hand shakes in time, I'll take what's mine

A name now dragging in the dirt
