Lyrics
The End of My Rope
Lyrics and music c. Steve Waddington
I dont' know how I can go on
Don't know how much I can take
Just how far can a willow bend
Before its branches break
I'm at the end of my rope
I'm at the end of my rope
My mind is off in the distance
I'm falling over the edge
Don't try to hold me responsible
For anything that I've said
I'm at the end of my rope
I'm at the end of my rope
Full of frustration, fresh out of hope
I feel like I'm swingin'...
...at the end of my rope
You know you're welcome to join me
You know that there'll always be
An open invitation to swing out here with me
Sometimes I start to get dizzy
When the rope starts to sway
Don't bother trying to reach me
I'm going down anyway
I'm at the end of my rope
I'm at the end of my rope
Full of frustration, fresh out of hope
I feel like I'm swingin'...
...at the end of my rope
I'm at the end of my rope...
