TIED UP IN KNOTS
© Nitanee Paris & Rachelle Lynn Gislason

Pieces of me swept away
Into the places shadows hide
Draw back the drapes
And let you come inside

Brush off your memories
And bring them to light
I’m not afraid
Of whispers in the night

You got me tied up in knots
This is not the way it’s supposed to be
Tied up in knots
Twisted around your finger
Set me free

I’m frozen in fire
Burning in your cold gray stare
Drawing me in
Is there anyone in there

Weave me into your story
I want to take it all
I’ll be far gone
Before the axe can fall

You got me
Tied up in knots
This is not the way it’s supposed to be
Tied up in knots
Twisted around your finger

Push me away
If you want me to leave
I know I’m safe
But safe is killing me
