Red Wanting Blue - Hope On A Rope lyrics

Dream's a whale and I am Ahab I am the captain of this rusty Bucket ship I left my home in search of big goals I promised my family that I'd break the mold So I set sail to the land of green gra** So much time's pa**ed I forgot what I was lookin' for Hope on a rope The bu*t of a bad joke Push yourself to the limit, kid Thatta boy, way to go Hope on a rope The bu*t of a bad joke Push yourself to the limit, kid Thatta boy, way to go Compa** is broke, it gives me no direction It reads like a riddle, gotta see through the smoke "Stay the course" folks would always say From port to port but they never know the way Deliver me, Lord some kind of answer This dream's a cancer and I can't paddle no more Hope on a rope The bu*t of a bad joke Push yourself to the limit, kid Thatta boy, way to go Hope on a rope The bu*t of a bad joke Push yourself to the limit, kid Thatta boy, way to go Anchored down, I breathe in 'Cause we got hope, we won't be sinking Hope on a rope The bu*t of a bad joke Push yourself to the limit, kid Thatta boy, way to go Hope on a rope The bu*t of a bad joke Push yourself to the limit There's no end to this road Our hope, like a carrot on a rope Always off in the distance, all she blows Our hope, like a carrot on a rope Just our of reach, that's all she wrote Our hope, like a carrot on a rope Always off in the distance, all she blows Breathe it in
