[00:00.00]Down the Burning Ropes - James Vincent McMorrow
[00:23.91]Written by：James Vincent McMorrow
[00:47.82]When the hills let go
[00:49.36]Slowly fade into the water like some ancient lover
[00:53.61]On a ship filled with ghosts
[00:55.93]
[00:58.37]It's something to behold
[00:59.61]
[01:04.25]When the paper thin girls
[01:06.29]With twisting little braids in their hair
[01:09.02]They take off their coats and throw pebbles and stones
[01:13.11]From the side of the boat
[01:15.20]Crying out
[01:15.82]
[01:17.44]The stones they float
[01:18.47]
[01:19.46]The stones they float
[01:20.84]
[01:22.94]Oh my god
[01:23.86]
[01:25.59]The stones they float
[01:26.53]
[01:29.08]The stones they float
[01:30.19]
[01:39.13]Down the burning ropes
[01:40.55]Past the places where the steal beams meet concrete skies
[01:44.80]You make your bed under the moonlight
[01:47.30]
[01:49.37]I think it's time we said goodbye
[01:51.36]
[01:55.37]'Cause nothing moves in the warm air
[01:57.51]And words that once would cut like a knife
[01:59.95]
[02:00.49]They just hang in the cloud and you're
[02:03.17]Pushed by the lord
[02:04.44]But you're pulled by the crowds and
[02:07.98]
[02:08.70]You're overboard
[02:10.06]
[02:10.96]You're overboard
[02:12.02]
[02:14.23]Oh my god
[02:14.74]
[02:16.77]She's overboard
[02:17.60]
[02:20.00]My love she's overboard
[02:26.61]
[02:28.53]She's overboard
[02:32.96]
[02:36.31]My love she's over board
[03:01.40]
[03:15.38]Not a shell unbroken
[03:16.82]In the valley where my heartache and the timbers lay
[03:21.14]It's not the time to be hanging around here
[03:24.34]
[03:26.11]You know what some might say
[03:27.50]
[03:31.77]That people get too reckless
[03:33.80]That even with the simplest of crimes
[03:37.09]They leave blood behind
[03:38.87]As I clean the knife for the very last time
[03:42.71]
[03:45.07]I think she knows
[03:45.93]
[03:46.87]I think she knows
[03:47.95]
[03:50.68]Oh my god
[03:51.32]
[03:53.27]I think she knows
[03:54.12]
[03:57.57]I think she knows
