Rope Swing

(альбом: Cardboard City - 2020)

I thought that I could delay this
Cause I'm a little nervous
I feel like a ghost with my shirt pulled over my head
And my arms wrapped round the branch
20 feet until I land

And I'm scared
I only ever ride the rope swing
I was simply making it right
And I'm scared
I only ever ride the rope swing, yeah

What if it's too shallow and I hit the bottom
What if I don't have the upper body strength to hold the rope

Maybe it's too cold and I should think about it
If I lose my breath when I go in, I doubt it

Will I get pumped if I don't jump or
Will I be pushed when I'm not looking
Okay, go, you count to four
Yeah, Geronimo, yeah, Geronimo

Well I'm pulling on the tree branch
When I run I take three steps back
Then I land in a splash and you splash after me
Run up on the grass then you throw the rope back at me
Pulling on the tree branch
When I, huh

I take three steps back
Then I land in a splash and you splash after me
Run up on the grass then you throw the rope back at me

I'm scared
I only ever ride the rope swing

I'm scared
I only ever ride the rope swing

And I'm scared
I only ever ride the rope swing
Cause I'm scared

But I don't think it's such a bad thing
So swing me back down now
