Lyrics:
Ever tried, ever failed
Try again, fail better
Free me from the hangman's rope
Won't wait until the day I awake
Won't wait until the day I awake
and yet full of hope
Begging for a hangman's rope
But knowing she'll save herself any day
I'll be the hero again and again
She screams damn the patriarchy
Hangman's rope is so tough and strong
Oh, the hangman's rope is so tough and strong
They gonna hang me because I done something wrong
I wanna
[Verse 1]
Hangman's rope is so tough and strong
Oh, the hangman's rope is so tough and strong
They gonna hang me because I done something wrong
Slack your rope hangman, slack it for a while
I think I see my father comin' ridin' many a mile
Father have you brought me hope or have you paid my
Nick Reynolds/Adam Yagodka
Hangman, hangman, hangman, slack your rope a while. Think I see my brother, ridin' many a mile.
Well, brother, did you
Hangman, hangman, slack your rope
Slack it for a while
I think I see my papa comin'
Ridin' a many mile
Papa, did you bring me silver?
Papa,
on the outside
Damned if I do, damned if I don't
Step back, I'll reap what I sow
Death has never felt so close
But I found hope in a hangman's rope
Come on, cut me
Kill the hope! Heads to the hangman's rope!
The end of reality breeding in vanity
There's no light at the end of the road
Climbed up cramped down hit
will grow
A hangman's rope to bind you
Their stories to deceive
One golden cloth to blind you
Served up for the naive
I spoke genius
I wrote
hearse
We ride disowned
Corroded to the bone
The fields of green
Are bent, obscene
I lay upon the gravel
A worm of hope
A hangman's rope
Pulls me
Swinging from a hangman's rope/ Addicts
Wanna shoot up/ Pop pills/ Wanna drink and toke/
Automatics spit hot/ You can still se the smoke
[Rakaa & Capleton]
steady as a hangman's hands
Surer than the hangman's rope
I could sleep for invisible years
Carrying a message of hope
For the future
Carrying
of our fingers
Making love in the shadows of a hangman's rope
Through the window you can hear the prayers calling
From the ancient rivers to the capital
whom the hangman's rope was spun
And what, God help us, could they save, could they save?
Romantic Ireland's dead and gone
It's with O'Leary in
time so slow
Love can heal a gaping wound
Or make the pain explode
Love can be the difference
Between life and the hangmans rope
And that's why love
Only if I could romanticize my trauma
I would long have learned to cope
With these common trifles and the melodrama
Not to knot this hangman's rope
But
at the surface and you can't hide
The treachery
You'll never be a leader to me
The treachery
This feels like heresy
The hangman's rope is frayed
Above a shallow
room.
We shall find him soon.
He won’t dodge the hangman’s rope,
Hasn’t got a hope!
He’s a traitor, common liar,
Teach him not to play with fire!
Show
My sweet Maggie standing in the crowd with sights on Sheriff Dunn
She put a bullet through the Hangman's rope and another through Dunn's chest
And we
Oh Lord, don't you let me down
I'm down in the gutter and i feel rundown
Oh Lord, won't you bring me hope
Help me get away from the hangman's rope
With the scent of your daydreaming, sweet illusions guile?
Did you taste the taste of hope that turned to hangman's rope?
Or did you keep your lips
but broken hopes have
Left me in shambles
My safety like a hangman's ropes, but
Still I couldn't gamble
Been patching wounds for
Several years now
thread cut could change
How it all unfolds
But there's a thousand threads
In the hangman's rope
Oh there's a thousand threads
And every father says
"It
