I was talking to johnny
'Bout the shape I'm in
With the pinhole eyes
And the darkness within
Ah, but the kid don't lie
He says: We know what we know
I'm sick of kicking out my life
In the glare of a world
That just don't wanna know
Don't let go
Don't let go
Don't let go
Don't let go of the rope, don't
But the kid don't lie
Never says a word
But he looked me in the eye
And I stared right down that barrel
Into the bottom of the world
Don't let go
Don't let go
Don't let go
Don't let go of the rope
And, if you're rolling easy, go steady
You gotta do what you do to get along
Did they leave you screaming in the rain?
Yeah, no one told you that they loved you
Were you cheated? Were you robbed?
Just hold on
And don't let go
Don't let go
Don't let go of the rope
And, if you're rolling easy, go steady
You gotta do what you can to get along
They left us screaming in the rain
Yeah, they tossed us with the garbage
Into the justice of the dark, oh, no
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey
Ah, don't let go (hey, hey, hey)
Don't let go (hey, hey, hey)
No, don't let go
Don't let go of the rope
Don't let go of the rope
Don't let go the—
Fuck off
