Hanging By A Thread

And through the grief and pain, i'm half insane

I give an inch you take a mile

You throw away the key, ignore my plea

You cut me down without a trial

(you keep me hanging by) hanging by a thread

(you keep me hanging by) leaving me for dead

(you keep me hanging by) i heard it when you said,

(you keep me hanging by) "keep him hanging by a thread"



You throw a length of rope, i grab, you hope,

It's just enough to hang myself

I make a fatal slip, i lose my grip

There's no-one left to call for help



(you keep me hanging by) hanging by a thread

(you keep me hanging by) leaving me for dead

(you keep me hanging by) i'm not finished yet

(you keep me hanging by) i'm still hanging by a thread



I hear a final scream, another dream

I hear it then i start to go (hang him by a thread)

I recognise the pain, a time to play

Then stuck me to the afterglow (hang him by a thread)

Then i wake up wet, soaked in sweat

Tell you all you want to know (hang him by a thread)
