[Verse 1]
Years ago, I tried to slip away
Moving like a freight train, cutting through the yard
I've been losing all my time again
There's a silent
Reckoning that starts behind the eyelids
Dripping intravenous to my heart
'Til I can't feel anything

[Chorus]
Switching at the surface
And I tried and tried to say it, but it don't relay
Tell me something sweet for the history
Something I can taste
Oh, it makes me nervous
How I tried and tried to give, but it don't relate
Tell me what you need, so I don't feel it
When the lasso pulls me in
And I let it, I lеt it pull me in

[Post-Chorus]
It's a cycle
A spinning that turns slowly into a spiral
Moving through a spiral into habit
When thе lasso pulls me in
And I said it, I'll say it again
It's the same ride
A minute that turns slowly into a lifetime
Moving through a lifetime into static
When the lasso pulls me in
And I let it, I let it pull me in
[Bridge]
Tie the loop
And swing the rope
Around your head
Swing 'round again
If you don't let go
Before you aim
You'll throw your rope
Around me again

[Chorus]
Switching at the surface
And I tried and tried to say it, but it don't relay
Tell me something sweet for the history
Something I can taste
Oh, it makes me nervous
How I tried and tried to give, but it don't relate
Tell me what you need, so I don't feel it
When the lasso pulls me in
And I let it, I let it pull me in

[Post-Chorus]
It's a cycle
A spinning that turns slowly into a spiral
Moving through a spiral into habit
When the lasso pulls me in
And I said it, I'll say it again
It's the same ride
A minute that turns slowly into a lifetime
Moving through a lifetime into static
When the lasso pulls me in
And I let it, I let it pull me in
