I'm really on the ropes this time
I've been fighting all my life for you
I never should have said goodbye
But maybe that's what stupid people do

You see the way they cling, the cold metallic sting
And I'm living in a coma for Donna de Varona
The harness made of hopes, the lovers on the ropes

Know you're trying best
But you can not please them
Stuck on the ropes
You're running out of options

Perk-a-Cola (OST Call of Duty) - Tombstone

I'm on the ropes now, my arms are heavy
Can't let them break me down
Don't let 'em push
I hear the voices say I'm not worthy

It hits the fan
you're on the ropes
with problems solved, they come in droves

Marcio doesn't give up
I guess it is valid when you're on the ropes
it's tragic how an innocent kid

'Cause fixers never fix themselves
She's a fighter with no one beside her
In a corner alone on the ropes
She's a let down away from a terrible place

Nineteen, your eyes are glowing to my beating heart
Oh, it seems like it is fine as my hand is moving up your arm
And you never really know where it goes up until it starts
I got my eye on you

I was diagnosed with a fear of getting too close
Had to tell the ones I love I was on the ropes
I'm not the only one whose life's been pulled apart

Your kiss is like an antidote
I'm fightin' like I'm Ali
But you got me on the ropes

Bam, pa-ra-da-da blow the wrapper now, fire the cannon pow (Bam, bam!)
Na, na-na-na-na
The king is on the ropes (Yeah)

Don't leave this town my dear
Don't leave even for the day
I'm on the ropes again
I need you as I am

Maybe I'm just a ghost
Emptier than anybody knows
Maybe I'm on the ropes
Or I'm not even here

Between medicines and belly shots
I was on the ropes
So I started thinking about religion

A winnin' streak only tastes so sweet

We had high hopes
Now my back's on the line
My back's on the ropes
When it started

You're alone

So you're Jesus on the ropes
A messiah without hope

I ask you your number; you give me your friend's.
Let me into your little life; lend you a hand.
What do you want? It's your beauty that puts me on the ropes.
