Lyrics:

10. Life In Tension

Look me in the eyes, I am no one’s fool
Victim of nothing, prey to no one, cut the noose
There’s an escape route, but I’m not gonna take it
I won’t let it win
Our Saviour’s in our head, it’s in our hands but we burn the candle at both ends
Two fingers to the world
Fuck your life of suffering
I’ve got nothing to prove
They say ‘The best way out is always through’
Walk the rope, walk the rope
from everything to nothing
Hope you know, hope you know
this music is our therapy
A song for those who never give up
walk the rope, walk the rope
We will overcome
Cornered by a life in tension
Take my hand, we will overcome
Living out a life in tension, cure us of the pain
Realize we’re all afraid
Real life is not for me
I’ll die singing:
‘Dreamers, we live the nightmare’
This crisis all inclusive,
survive on poor excuses
You’ll get out what you give in
There’s an escape route, but I’m not gonna take it
I won’t let it win
Do you feel like the rain is following you?
Don’t be the prey!
Don’t be the praying hands.
Don’t be the prejudice
of a life we’re yet to live.
Walk the rope, walk the rope
from everything to nothing
Hope you know, hope you know
this music is our therapy
A song for those who never give up
walk the rope, walk the rope
We will overcome
