Hanging By A Thread |
| And through the grief and pain, I’m half insane |
| I give an inch you take a mile |
| You throw away the key, ignore my plea |
| You cut me down without a trial |
| (You keep me hanging by…) hanging by a thread |
| (You keep me hanging by…) leaving me for dead |
| (You keep me hanging by…) I heard it when you said |
| (You keep me hanging by…) «Keep him hanging by a thread» |
| You throw a length of rope, I grab, you hope |
| It’s just enough to hang myself |
| I make a fatal slip, I lose my grip |
| There’s no-one left to call for help |
| (You keep me hanging by…) hanging by a thread |
| (You keep me hanging by…) leaving me for dead |
| (You keep me hanging by…) I’m not finished yet |
| (You keep me hanging by…) I’m still hanging by a thread |
| I hear a final scream, another dream |
| I hear it then I start to go (hang him by a thread) |
| I recognise the pain, a time to play |
| Then stuck me to the afterglow (hang him by a thread) |
| Then I wake up wet, soaked in sweat |
| Tell you all you want to know (hang him by a…) |
