MOUNTAIN OF ROPE

Lyrics Michael Ricotta
Music Mark W. Costoso

When I needed to love, I gave you special faces
When I needed to hate, just went and took them all away
When I needed a drink from my bottled weather
I turned you into a corkscrew and I gave you a spin

When I feared the winter, I threw you into the fire
When I filed away my hours, I made you work off the time
When I was losing my sight, I made you my eyes
When I lost sight of myself, I made you into a mirror and counted my losses

CHORUS
So I've got a mountain of rope
Still you keep on feeding me
I've got a mountain of rope
Until you've got me tangled up and tied down to you

When I wanted to grow a garden of cyanide flowers
You went out in the midday planting where you found fertile soil
When I wanted to make a knot of my past
I looped my history around your finger and clipped the end with a rusty razor

CHORUS

When I needed to love, I gave you special faces
When I needed to hate, just went and took them all away
When I needed a drink from my bottled weather
I turned you into a corkscrew and I gave you a spin

CHORUS
