Lyrics
Up Against The Ropes
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Pushed up against the ropes, you wouldn't last another round
I never wished for you to suffer like this
You would not listen
We will survive, the strong, the fortunate, the never ending
We will survive through thick and thin
Looking in the mirror, seeing a trouble reflection
This is our darkest hour
Remember what you said when we waved our goodbyes
We're all dead in the end, so live life while you can
You've abandoned me
You've abandoned all of us
We've forgiven you, so forgive yourself
I have little sympathy for this divorce story
Stand in front of the jury, with no happy ending
