The Rope That Held Me

Admittance.
Inspiration was a crutch.
It inspires us all.
It inspires sex and love and lust,
And I held on.
Lifes contort to bear and hold,
It lasts forever my friend.
But Ill hold on.
Of all my brothers and sisters, I chose you.
We were inspired.
Life was inspired.
But the whole point of this big picture was,
Something lasted forever, my friend.
And I held on...
And I held on.
Lifes contort to bear and hold,
It lasts forever.
And Ill hold on.
Lifes contort to bear and hold,
It lasts forever, my friend.
And Ill hold on.
Something lasts forever.
I know Id kill and I know I will.
Im not ashamed that something lasts forever.
Its pounding in my mind,
And its throbbing in my heart.
We were held.
We were safe.
We were at home.
Im not ashamed that it was my crutch.
I cant deceive.
And I wont believe,
That I was ashamed,
But I was only crying.
Open up now.
I wanna see you.
Lifes contort to bear and hold,
It lasts forever.
But Ill hold on.
