Cutting our ties with a hacksaw In the backyard Tryna use grease from my elbow But it's so hard I'll be out here for a while I'm not in denial this is gonna work I'm sure Just a bit more of a rope that's already been loosened but my arms getting sore I can't cut you out I don't have the power I get more worn down By the hour I'm not strong enough We need to together Til we both saddle up We'll be tethered Know you'll be back in our hometown for the winter How you expect me to say no when you send that picture Got a hotel 20 minute uber from my parents meet you there tomorrow night I don't think they'd even care if I brought you to theirs it's just I think I might I can't cut you out I don't have the power I get more worn down By the hour I'm not strong enough We need to together Til we both saddle up We'll be tethered And I don't wanna miss you but I don't have the controls I revolve around you like a ball tied to a pole If you push me away harder I might make a wider circle But you'll always be theret in the middle Playing tetherball always hurts a little
