Vine

It looks like a rainbow, it looks like a vine

Pends over the river, twists on the inside

I started to climb into it like a visionary

Voice told me to wait a minute, pulled me out so I could see

That it is a long way to the other side

There is no way out once you are inside

And as you climb it, it slowly turns you round

You will land with your head on the ground

I visualised entrapment in the peak

Arms gripping the rung, hanging by my feet

I wonder if I could have made it, if I could have made it through

If I hadn't listened, if I had ignored you

But it is a long way to the other side

And there is no way out once you are inside

And as you climb it, it slowly turns you round

You will land with your head on the ground

I'll never know if you saved my life or kept me from growing

But if you did, then I apologise, for I'll never forgive you

You know it was my choice to take the risk and climb

But when I heard your voice it overshadowed mine

And now the chance is gone, the other side so far away

The river still goes on, I will always hear you say

That it is a long way to the other side

There is no way out once you are inside

And as you climb it, it slowly turns you round

You will land with your head on the ground
