Time Is A Length Of Rope Lyrics

O'brother Time Is A Length Of Rope

careful where you leap
there's holes on either side
and time is a length of rope
my tendency to gravitate a cause
is running wild as i watch you choke
take it easy, i don't wanna fight
oh what terrible things,
we say in the name of love
the lines we hide in heartless tones
oh how could we think
to to kick out the legs of our throne
while tied at the throat by a length of rope
